Description 1 online resource (70 minutes) Summary Six Locked Doors explores the events leading up to the deadliest nightclub fire in American history on November 28, 1942, at the Cocoanut Grove nightclub in Boston, Massachusetts. With double the allowed occupants, locked doors, flammable materials, and other deadly conditions, the fire left 492 people dead. Through interviews with survivors who have never before spoken on camera and an extensive archive collection of photos, and unreleased footage the film explores how corruption, greed and a former gangster-run speakeasy led to an unimaginable tragedy Notes Title from title screen (viewed September 16, 2022) In English Subject Cocoanut Grove (Boston, Mass.) -- Fire, 1942 SUBJECT Cocoanut Grove (Boston, Mass.) fast Subject Bars (Drinking establishments) -- Fires and fire prevention -- Massachusetts -- Boston Fire prevention -- Massachusetts -- Boston Fires -- Casualties -- Massachusetts -- Boston Burns and scalds -- Massachusetts -- Boston Burns and scalds Fire prevention Fires -- Casualties Massachusetts -- Boston Genre/Form documentary film.
