Disney's hit feature, Song of the South, had an unusual opening in Chicago, as the film opened on a Saturday (rare for a first-run film; invariably Friday was the day of choice for most lst run films), on December 21, 1946 at the RKO Palace (Randolph at LaSalle---today the Cadillac Palace). The ad in the Chicago Tribune reads:
