These were just the first neighborhood showings of “Imitation of Life” and shared with other circuits such as Skouras and Century in places where RKO had no outlets. NYC premiere engagement of “Imitation of Life” had been at Roxy Theatre (with stage support). Twenty-five years earlier, the original B&W “Imitation of Life” with Claudette Colbert also debuted at the Roxy (with stage show).
