July 16, 1958 –
The classic Vincent Price Sci-Fi film, The Fly, opened in San Francisco on this date.
Although many people swear they have seen this film in black and white, they never have. This is sometimes referred to as the “Mandela Effect“, which is simply a false memory. It’s extremely common. The Fly was only ever filmed and shown in color. However, the sequels Return of the Fly and Curse of the Fly are in black and white. This is likely where the confusion comes from, or they might have watched it on a black & white television, which were common through the 1980s.
