What was the first film featuring a film that had a score by your favorite composer you saw in a theater ("Alien" was the first film I saw in a theater with a Jerry Goldsmith score).

Either "Vertigo" or "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad" when I was very young. Both made huge, unbelievable, impressions on me.

SNOW WHITE AND THE 7 DWARFS
Saw this in reissue in 1952; scared the wits out of me. Hid under the seats for most of it.
I was 3.
Later wrote a letter about it to the New York Times, which was printed.
But loved the music, and the Disneyland soundtrack lp's, of this and CINDERELLA, were among the first I ever bought with my own money.

I think the first film I saw was the first "Asterix", but the first film I remember is "Polar Express", and yes Alan Silvestri's score really haunted me for years!

In 5th grade, my friend Cary had the London Records recording of "The Fantasy Film World of Bernard Herrmann." We listened to it in rapt attention over and over.
Not too long after this introduction, we attended a special Saturday morning screening for kids at the Paramount Theater in Austin, TX. The film was "Jason and the Argonauts." We applauded when the name Bernard Herrmann appeared on the screen!

Also the only films scored by Herrmann of which the orchestras weren't conducted by him (because of the '58 musicians strike). This explains why "The 7th Voyage Of Sinbad" carries only the credit "Music By Bernard Herrmann" rather than "Music Composed And Conducted By Bernard Herrmann" (it was performed by the Graunke Symphony Orchestra Of Munich under the direction of its conductor Kurt Graunke).
