Oh well. I guess it was un-wise of me to listen to the Wayans (On Leno) to say that they held the title for it.

My question is:
though The Robe was the first film to be released in Cinemascope, it was actually the second movie to be filmed in Cinemascope. What was the first movie to be filmed in Cinemascope?
(by the way I don't know the answer; that's whay I'm asking.

Here's mine: what is the only major theatrical release to feature two actors who have played Batman?

Here's some other contenders for title all by Lina Wertmuller:
The Blue Collar Worker and the Hairdresser in a Whirl of Sex and Politics
Crystal or Ash, Fire or Wind, as Long as It's Love
A Joke of Destiny, Lying in Wait Around the Corner Like a Bandit
The End of the World in Our Usual Bed in a Night Full of Rain
Swept Away by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August

There were plenty of widescreen films before The Robe and Cinemascope.
This is Cinerama and How the West Was Won for starters. Going further back Napoleon was a widescreen silent and check out this John Wayne film:http://www.dvdtalk.com/dvdsavant/s838trail.html

I'm not sure if there is a question active, so
What was the first film released theatrically with a DTS soundtrack?

Napoléon (1927)
Aspect ratio
1.33 : 1 (spherical sequences)
4.00 : 1 (Tryptich sequences)
I guess it doesn't get much wider than that! 
Incidently, How the West Was Won was released almost ten years after The Robe.

No, 1995 is the past.

That's interesting that that's what it says in the script. They must have moved every year up 1 because in the finished film it's 1990 and 1996. Watch it again.

I think it's also neat that originally the script was called 11 Monkeys...
