This is a really old movie so that the title sequence may be not like this now. But this is a
essential title sequence in the old movie.
To get more information of the opening sequence, I searched a common opening credit
in Wikipedia .

3. Common opening credits order
While there are numerous variations most opening credits use some variation of the basic order noted within:
(NAME OF THE STUDIO)
Name of the studio that is distributing the film and may or may not have produced it (Walt Disney Pictures,
Columbia, Lions Gate, Universal, Marvel Studios, Dimension, Miramax etc.).
(NAME OF THE PRODUCTION COMPANY)
Name of the production company that actually made the film or name of the investment groups or companies that
financed a substantial part of the film (usually credited as "in association with" or "A (studio name) production.").
(PRODUCER NAME) PRODUCTION or/and (director only) A FILM BY (DIRECTOR NAME)
Director's first credit, often "a film by XY or "a XY film".
STARRING
Principal actors, (Sometimes the stars' and director's credits will be reversed, depending on the star's deal with the
studio; sometimes, as in the Rodgers and Hammerstein films, or as in all three film versions of Show Boat, or, as in
many of Disney's films, the title of the film will be shown before the names of its actors; sometimes, as in many of
Cannon's films, the name(s) of the principal actor(s) will be shown before the name(s) of the producer(s), i.e. "The
Cannon Group presents X in a Golan-Globus production of a Y film").
(FILM'S TITLE)

5. EDITOR or EDITED BY
Editor.

Director of photography.
PRODUCER or PRODUCED BY, EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
Producers, co-producers, executive producers, 'also produced by' (credited for various reasons according to contracts
and personal scrutiny of the principal producer). Often, though, the name of the producer will be the next-to-last
opening credit, just before the director's name is shown.
BASED ON THE BOOK(PLAY, GRAPHIC NOVEL etc.) BY or FROM A PLAY/BOOK BY (older movies)
If based on a book or other literary work.
BASED ON THE CHARACTERS BY or BASED ON THE CHARACTERS CREATED BY
If based on characters from a book or other media.
STORY or STORY BY
Person who wrote the story on which the script is based, gets "story by" credit, and the first screenplay credit, unless
the script made substantial changes to the story.

6. WRITER(S) or WRITTEN BY
Screenplay writers. The Writers Guild of America allows only three writing credits on a feature film, although teams
of two are credited as one, separated on the credits by an ampersand ("X & Y"). If each works independently on the
script (the most common system), they are separated by an "and". If more than two persons worked on the screenplay,
the credits may read something like "screenplay by X & Y and Z and W" X and Y worked as a team, but Z and W
worked separately.[5]
DIRECTOR or DIRECTED BY
Director. The Directors Guild of America usually permits a film to list only one director, even when it is known that
two or more worked on it. Exceptions are made in rare cases such as a death, and subsequent replacement of the
director mid-production.,[6] and for established directing teams such as the Coen brothers.[7]
