Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz was the first film made in color?

No. One reference source states directly that The Wizard of Oz was not the first film to use Technicolor, noting earlier color films such as The Gulf Between (1917), and two academic papers describe Oz only as the first Technicolor movie, a narrower category than first color film.
