Check out this block ad for Sunrise & Whitestone Drive-Ins. They were not open all winter like they were later on when they advertised electric heaters. Plus they bragged about letting the car in for free

The Reade Organization released “Slaves” the god awful film debut of Dionne Warwick. In December 1969 Continental Releasing paired it with Night of the Living Dead and it opened on the RKO track across town. Notice it’s not playing any Walter Reade Theatres :)
