Midnight is a 1934 film noir directed by Chester Erskine and starring Sidney Fox, O.P. Heggie, Henry Hull, Margaret Wycherly, and Humphrey Bogart. The film was re-released as Call It Murder after Bogart became a movie star. His credit was enlarged to a guest star status although Bogart was eighth in the cast credits in the original release. The film is now in the public domain and as a result is widely available in the VHS and DVD formats, but most copies of the movie available are of poor quality due to the lack of any profit motive being available to encourage any potential restorer as others would remain free to copy and redistribute any restored version.

Midnight is an American 1939 screwball comedy film directed by Mitchell Leisen and written by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder based on a story by Edwin Justus Mayer and Franz Schulz.

Actress Barbara Stanwyck was originally slated for the role of Eve Peabody, but was replaced by Claudette Colbert because of scheduling problems.

The film was remade as Masquerade in Mexico (1945) with Dorothy Lamour.
