The Midnight Flyer is a 1918 American short action drama film directed by George Marshall and starring Hoot Gibson.

Cast[edit]

Reception[edit]

Like many American films of the time, The Midnight Flyer was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors required a cut, in Reel 2, of the note reading "Danny will be gone Tuesday", three scenes of young women at a bar, the intertitle "I've come to kill you", and the shooting scene.[1]
