Here is a fine production by Julien Duvivier.
I had the impression to be one of the castle's festivity and the arrival of the "Visiteurs" added a mysterious ingredient that had, at the beginning at least, nothing of the despair that was part of their demoniacal mission.
The enchantment provoked by the satanic couple was a pure wonder. That momentary paralysis of a whole small world between two exciting scenes emphasized Arletty's and Cuny's masterly talent.
Jules Berry's play (the Devil) was so fascinating that it made me longing for a ticket to Hell.
That high class "fantasia" glide far over all those easy big budget "fantastic" productions which flood the film fans since too long.
