Rating: 5/5 --
Even bemused viewers will delight at Dietrich's sublimely ridiculous costumes as well as some of Hollywood's most awe-inspiring imagery. The elusive, unobtainable object of desire has really never been more sumptuously captured.

Rating: 4/4 --
Dietrich's fiery performance is irresistible, especially the way she stomps her feet and fires eye-daggers to get what she wants.

Combustible Celluloid
Sternberg's universe is a realm of textures, shadows, and surfaces, which merge and separate in an erotic dance.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
Of all the von Sternberg-Dietrich films this is the most unpopular and unsatisfying.

TV Guide
While Devil is a somewhat monotonous picture, Sternberg has given it clever photography and background.

Description by OLDIES.com:
The glamorous Marlene Dietrich stars in The Devil is a Woman, an alluring romance set in the port town of Seville at the turn of the century. During carnival week, the blood of enemies and the passion of lovers run hot when a new woman (Dietrich) comes between a young revolutionary (Cesar Romero) and his old friend (Lionel Atwill). Directed by two-time Academy Award nominee Josef Von Sternberg, this is the film that Marlene Dietrich was most proud of, as she said, I was the most beautiful.
