Cast and community members stand under the Ritz Theater marquee in Gainesville for the 1952 premiere of “Birthright.”
These photos show the 1952 “world premiere” of the movie “Birthright,” which was filmed in Hall County with a local cast for the most part. The parade of cars is coming down Washington Street crossing Bradford Street on the downtown square. The building at the corner of Washington and Bradford is now occupied by Christopher’s formal wear.
