Lloyd Bacon's WINGS OF THE NAVY (1939).
I choose this not because of the film itself, but because it was the opening night film screened at Wilmington's Warner Theatre (02/08/1939).
Excerpts below are from my book, HISTORIC MOVIE THEATERS OF DELAWARE (The History Press, 2019).

The Tri-State Mall Theater (Claymont, DE), seen here days before its Nov 1970 opening, is historically significant for two reasons:
It was DE’s first multi-screen theater, and it was one of only 45 U.S. theaters to screen STAR WARS on its 05/25/77 opening. #HMTOD
