The Man at Midnight (1924 film)

The Man at Midnight is a 1924 American silent mystery film directed by Ralph Ince and starring Alice Joyce, Brandon Tynan, and William Collier Jr. The film is based on a novel, although details regarding the novel's title and author are often missing from available sources. The plot revolves around a complex web of intrigue, involving stolen jewels, mistaken identities, and a mysterious figure operating under the cover of darkness, presumably "The Man at Midnight."

The film, like many from the silent era, is now considered lost. No known copies are known to exist in archives or private collections. Because of its lost status, detailed plot synopses and critical reviews are scarce. Information regarding the production company and distribution details are also often difficult to ascertain. The absence of the film limits the modern understanding of Ince's directorial style and the performances of the actors involved, particularly Alice Joyce who was a well-known actress during the silent film era. Information about the film primarily comes from contemporary reviews and advertisements found in period newspapers and trade publications.
