At the Drive-in (2017)

This is a fantastic documentary… I highly recommend it!

How many people were first conceived in the backseat of their parent’s car, while they were parked at some drive-in movie date?
Designed for the suburbs of the 1950s, many people missed the golden age of the drive-in, as most shutdown by the 1980s… But the drive-in theater found a new role in the summer of 2020, as a covid safe site for collective entertainment.
With most live events on pause, the drive-in movie theater became covid summer’s go-to venue…
For most people, there’s something heartwarming and affirming about seeing other humans who are all there for one thing, because they want to be entertained…

Will the lingering pandemic spur a drive-in rebirth? 😊
