I don't know exaclty what the very first one that I saw was, but the first one I remember right now is Anastasia. I think it was a Disney movie. It was animated, and there was a rat or a bat or some kind of white bald creature who was Anastasia's friend.
I have no idea what the actual movie was about, but I do remember us going to get candy before the movie at Rite Aid and sneaking it in to the theater. We bought that gum that has zebra stripes on it, and it was so stale.
What about you? What was the first movie you saw in theaters? Or Remember seeing?

Television was really late coming to South Africa (mid-1970s), so when I was taken to a cinema for the first time, it was a totally new experience to me. My first movie was "The Wizard of Oz". I found it really frightening and wasn't keen to go to another movie after that. Unfortunately I eventually developed a taste for the movies and television and now watch far too much.

Probably Mary Poppins here in the UK in the early 60s.

I can think of early movies that I saw but not the actual first.

@JohnRoberts , than what was the last movie you saw in theatres, since your advanced age prevents you from remembering the first

I don't remember but it might be a kung fu movie of Jackie chan. Its the usual movie being shown when I was a kid in our local cinema. If we want something much better we have to visit the city which is 3 hours away.
