David O. Selznick’s “indie” production was distributed by United Artists…Easter Sunday arrived on April 12th that year.
At top Barrymore gets top billing but in credits Bartholomew comes first. I know Easter week(after Easter) was off for school students but the Joliet High School Band had to take off a week of school preceding Easter at least. It probably didn’t run another week. Shows back then had very short runs. A hit was two weeks, a blockbuster was three. The Music Hall had a regular audience that didn’t want to wait too long before seeing a new film.
