The Beloved Cheater (originally titled The Pleasant Devil) is a 1919 American silent comedy film, directed by Christy Cabanne.

[3] In conjunction with the release of the film, the Robertson-Cole Exchange conducted a "love-letter" campaign, which offered $500 to the best love letter submitted.

[8] Robertson-Cole purchased the rights to distribute The Beloved Cheater, along with five other upcoming Lew Cody films, in mid-October 1919.

Fifteen hundred movie-goers braved a snowstorm standing in line for the film's opening.

They also found the title cards unobtrusive, the sets done with elegance and taste, and the overall production quality excellent.

[10] The film spawned a hit popular song, "That Beloved Cheater of Mine", which was distributed by Gilbert & Friedland.
