the real first interracial kiss was on the kids show "our gang" when the kid who played buckwheat kissed one of the white girls on the show circa 1922-1925. but it wasn't scripted, nor between adults.
this also ignores any white man kissing an asian woman, which occurred many times before the star trek episode I mentioned previously.
did I mention that I hate this question?

In this universe there *weren't* any US TV series in 1922-25.

the record.) "Duration" could've meant the reverse, so it was
insufficiently specific for full points. 4 for Joshua, Stephen,
Pete, Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce, and Dan Blum. 3 for Gareth.

2 for Stephen.
Kirk and Uhura weren't kissing voluntarily in the scene; aliens
had taken control of their bodies. It still counts as interracial
because, after all, William Shatner and Nichelle Nichols were kissing.
However, it doesn't really qualify as the first -- see Stephen
Perry's remarks.

As one entrant noted, these two don't actually marry in the movie.
But it is a case of true love, and he saves her from the marriage
that she's dressed for in the photo.

"Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones". 3 for Stephen.
"Star Wars: The Clone Wars" was the subtitle of a later animated
movie and TV series. I scored "Star Wars Episode II: The Clone
Wars" as almost correct. "Star Wars" was the wrong movie; it was
the original movie in the series and does not include a wedding.

The term "Star Wars" is now used to refer to the six film series. The "first" instalment is now officially known as "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope". See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/

If you don't consider "Star Wars" specific enough then I am not protesting, but if you think it refers only to Episode IV then I am!

There is no "officially"; there is only "titles that have been used".
Only one movie has been known simply as "Star Wars", and so it shall
always be known.

Yes, of course it is. But when you're asked to name a movie, it's
specifically the first movie in the series.
