Notes: Hoyts thought so little of The Blind Goddess that they dumped it into the Australia Cinema. They thought even less of this film that it played the support role there. One Night With You is classed as a Suburban release in that it played an equal number of Suburban, Independent and Hoyts houses. A dire 27 EF points, but due to enough of its 15 screenings being in the (then) outer suburbs it was ranked 2nd for average metres travelled per engagement.
