I just looked it up, I was incorrect. It was double billed with The Errand Boy at the Merrick Gables Theatre in February,1968.
I might have seen a Disney movie first but the first movie that I remember seeing and my earliest memory period is of seeing The Empire Strikes Back in a theater. Given my age, it must have been the 1982 re-release.
Yeah, there was the May 1980 release, a July (maybe August?) 1981 re-release and a November 1982 re-release.Now I’m wondering if mine was in 1982 as well. I knew it was the first film I can remember going to. I didn’t remember the year, so before I posted I looked up the original release year, not thinking there might have been a rerelease.

Is your real name Steven Spielberg??My first movie in a theatre was Gentleman’s Agreement which we saw on vacation in Miami Beach. The next film I saw was DeMille’s The Greatest show on Earth. After seeing the train wreck at the end of GSOE I asked my dad to buy me electric trains for my birthday. It‘s interesting that they took me to Gentleman‘s Agreement which has absolutely no interest to children.
