Review of Beat the Devil (1953) by Jon T — 27 Dec 2007
Sources tell us that the script for this movie was dictated by Truman Capote's pet raven. The raven came up with this genius monologue for Peter Lorre: "Time . . . time," Lorre says. "What is time? Swiss manufacture it.
French hoard it. Italians squander it. Americans say it is money. Hindus say it does not exist. Do you know what I say? I say time is a crook.".
