Various sources provide incomplete information.  According to the NEW YORK
TIMES REVIEW, the film premiered at Radio City Music Hall on 15 August 1946
(a Thursday), but VARIETY previewed the film as early as July 18.  The film
opened in Los Angeles a week after the New York opening.  Finally, Peter
Bogdanovich gives the release dates as September 9 (perhaps this is the
date of nationwide release) in THE CINEMA OF ALFRED HITCHCOCK, a 1963
booklet accompanying a Hitchock retrospective at the Museum of Medern Art.
