Marvin says: Aaaaaarrrrrrgghhhh!!!! Most people "see" 1950s audiences wearing
red-and-green glasses because of ill-informed writers like this who can't be
bothered with reality when a quick and colorful urban legend will do instead.
Despite the clear "memories" implanted in the minds of many people -- including
some on this list -- by such hogwash, not a single audience in the early 1950s
EVER watched a 3D film through anaglyph glasses! With the exception of a couple
of old reissued shorts, all 3D films in that era -- B&W or color, shorts or
features -- were released solely in polaroid!
