The dates represent the first day of commercial release (except in cases during Parts I and II where there was a publicly promoted premiere or invitational preview held the day prior). Any formats cited in the notes section represent the exhibition format, not the photography process. Any formats followed by a question mark represent an unconfirmed presentation process or one in which conflicting details exist as to which print type was exhibited. A lack of a format notation implies a 35mm presentation with monaural sound. Opening date YYYY-MM-DD TITLE (duration in weeks) [notes] |
