American Eve Peabody (Claudette Colbert), a wily ex-showgirl, must impersonate Hungarian royalty in order to infiltrate the Parisian jet set. Midnight begins during a midnight rainstorm as Eve arrives penniless in Paris, owning only the gold lamé gown on her back. She attracts the attention of Hungarian cab driver, Tibor (Don Ameche), but walks out on their budding romance; Eve will no longer make the mistake of dating for love rather than money. Instead, she finds shelter from the downpour by crashing a socialite's late-night soirée using a pawn ticket and a pseudonym, the Baroness Czerny (the cab driver's surname). What ensues is quintessential screwball comedy, full of deception, love, quadruple entendre, and outright farce.—All Rovi
