Oldest movie seen

I was searching for the oldest movie that I had ever seen. I thought it would be James Stewart’s It's a Wonderful Life (1946) because it is black and white, but I was shocked to learn The Wizard of Oz (1939)predated that. For it is in color.

Walt Disney’s filmography didn’t show Cinderalla but Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) predated them all.

Other movies:

  • Sorry, Wrong Number (1948)
  • White Christmas (1954)
