French director Jules Dassin's 1955 noir classic about four ex-cons and their plan for one last ultimate heist in Paris was a popular and 'wildly influential' film which garnered Dassin the Best Director award at the Cannes Film Festival.

In this 1939 romantic screwball comedy set in Paris, a cuckolded millionaire (John Barrymore) hires a down-on-her-luck showgirl (Claudette Colbert) to distract and steal the champagne-heir who's been romancing Barrymore's wife (Mary Astor). Will the showgirl marry for money? Or will she be swayed by the lovelorn cab driver (Don Ameche) who relentlessly pursues her?

Last year, Midnight was one of the United State Film Preservation Board's 25 annual selections chosen for preservation in the Library of Congress; each film on the National Film Registry (established in 1988) is voted in by the Board based on its cultural, historical, or aesthetic significance.

Past selections include The African Queen (1951), Boyz n the Hood (1991), The General (1926), The Wizard of Oz (1939), and the Zapruder film of the Kennedy assassination (one of only four 'home movies' added to the list).
