Bedazzled

No, not the 2000 remake with Elizabeth Hurley and Brendan Fraser. Rather, the original 1967 movie, with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore (Cook also wrote the screenplay from a story by him and Moore). I haven't seen the 2000 version, but the original is a fabulous film--very funny, and with great performances by Moore and Cook (especially Cook). The film is directed by Stanley Donen, a name I should have remembered as the director of 'Charade.' The movie features a very odd performance by Raquel Welch as 'Lust.' Maybe she thought she was in a Tennesee Williams play? I dunno.
