Marquee Notes: “Lady in the Dark” was released in February, 1944. The coming attraction, “Girl Crazy,” was released in November, 1943. Hawaii got everything late in those days, so I’m guessing this shot was taken in front of the Waikiki Theater in late 1944 or perhaps early 1945.
Picture is of the prerenovated Waikiki Theatre. The Waikiki Theatre on Kalakaua Avenue had stairs going up to the theaters from where you bought your tickets.
