NOTES: Two weeks at the Esquire was not enough for Hoyts to deem One Sunday Afternoon worthy of a top-billed suburban run. Instead, it would play support to Ma and Pa Kettle Go to Town, making it a very homely night at the flicks. This film spent its first suburban week at the Palais rather than a Hoyts house and oddly picked up a couple of FO bookings.
