The Devil in a Convent (Prancis: Le Diable au couvent), dirilis di Britania Raya dengan judul "The Sign of the Cross", or the Devil in a Convent, adalah sebuah film bisu pendek Prancis tahun 1899 garapan Georges Méliès.

Tema

Menurut beberapa kritikus film, The Devil in a Convent memplesetkan kehidupan biara, menyiratkan pandangan satir terhadap Gereja Katolik. Méliès nyaris sepakat dengan perasaan anti-gerejawi yang timbul saat perkara Dreyfus pada 1898 dan 1899; Méliès mendukung pihak Alfred Dreyfus dan Gereja menentangnya.^[2] Méliès membuat satir agama lain, The Temptation of Saint Anthony, pada tahun yang sama,^[2] serta seri film buatannya yang sangat pro-Dreyfus The Dreyfus Affair.^[3]
