Das Maedchen von Gestern Nacht was released outside of Germany under the streamlined and somewhat colorless title of Midnight Happenings. Set amongst England's "upper crust," the film stars Willy Fritsch as devil-may-care bachelor Lord Stanley Stalton. Falling in love with American heiress Jean (Gusti Huber), Lord Stanley isn't prepared for the girl's feisty sense of independence. They fight, make up, fight, make up, fight, make up?..Well, this would go on unabated were it not for the comedy relief of secondary couple Stanley Chestnut (Rudolf Platte) and Evelyn (Ingeborg von Kusserow). The English characters in Midnight Happenings are treated derisively, but not hatefully, as would be the case when Germany went to war against England. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
