A Sainted Devil is a 1924 American silent romantic drama film directed by Joseph Henabery and starring Rudolph Valentino. Based on the novel Ropes End by Rex Beach, the film tells the story of a Latin American revolutionary who disguises himself as a priest while seeking revenge against a corrupt dictator. The film was produced by Adolph Zukor and Jesse Lasky. A Sainted Devil was the second film Valentino made under his new production arrangement following his highly publicized dispute with Famous Players–Lasky. The film received mixed critical reviews but performed strongly in its first week at the box office.
