Anyone have a contact for booking RKO repertory? The RKO switchboard has sent me to half a dozen people who have nothing to do with rep. And those people don't know either.

Someone more knowledgable can correct me, but I believe that most RKO films are owned and distributed by Warner Brothers.

I thought it was Paramount.

Time Warner controls and distributes the bulk of the RKO library, though RKO Pictures retain the copyright.

RKO

Distribution of the RKO library is handled by Warner Bros. Classics booking office. It is the same contact as for pre-1986 MGM and older WB pictures.
