The Devil and Daniel Webster (1941)

A married man engages a fetching nursemaid for his baby boy. She is extremely flirtatious and he is sexually attracted to her. He is also seen approaching her bedroom door late at night. Neglecting his family, they spend a lot of time alone together, and she wears beautiful dresses. When he builds a mansion, she moves in as the lady of the house. In all senses, she appears to be his mistress.

Jabez' pregnant wife Mary is not allowed to be shown as pregnant because of the film censorship through the Hayes Code. Its ban read: "scenes of actual childbirth-in fact or in silhouette."

A misbehaving boy is spanked by his godfather.

Jabez' favorite swear word is consarn it.

Cigar smoking is seen. Social alcohol consumption is shown.

A man is hauntingly turned into a moth as the cost of selling his soul to the Devil.

The climax of the film features a trial in which the main character is judged by a ghostly jury of the damned, including various savage and treacherous figures from early American history.
