"Murder at Midnight" starts with a game of charades - one of the participants has been murdered and then the killings start.
Aileen Pringle (who was a star of the 20s and had an affair with H.L. Mencken) is the star.
Leslie Fenton (an actor I always liked) played Walter Grayson.
The thing I couldn't get over was adorable Alice White. She played Millie the maid. She had about three lines. She may have been 2nd in the cast - more like 22nd in importance. I have adored Alice White for so long - I was really looking forward to seeing her in this film - any film. In 1930 her star was riding high - what happened?? I know she was involved in some scandals but I thought that was later in her career. She is much better served in "Employees' Entrance" - where she really shines and her charms are put to good use.
