IMDb profile

Satan Met a Lady is a 1936 Warner Bros. film based on the novel The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett and starring Bette Davis. Reportedly, she considered this film one of the worst of her career. Adapted to the screen by Brown Holmes, it was directed by William Dieterle. In 1936, Warner Brothers had attempted to re-release the 1931 version of The Maltese Falcon, but was denied approval by the Production Code Office due to the film's "lewd" content. Thereupon, Warner Bros. made this light comedy in order to capitalize on the popularity of the earlier film.

In this version, everyone is after a ram's horn rather than a statuette of a falcon.
