One of my favorite movies and astonishingly it opened as the ‘42 Christmas show and with a change of stage show played until March!
Despite the MGM gloss and sudden happy ending a very dark and tragic film and an odd choice for a holiday film in the 40s.
Mervyn Leroy claims he was told by the Music Hall management it could play another 11 weeks but they had to get a new film in.
Astounding when it had 5 showings a day to close to 6,000 people. WW II certainly was the halcyon days of film going in NY with all those midtown movie palaces constantly filling up playing to thousand of people a show.
A very exciting time for movie going.
But of course there was that war…
