In my opinion, it’s we “weirdos” that are truly keeping alive the spirit of the old Drive-In, in our own way. I screen 16mm films from private collectors, I don’t advertise, and only friends and neighbors show up when the light hits the screen – like moths to a flame. Ain’t nothing weird about it! It’s a beautiful thing. Glad to hear others, such as yourself, are keeping the spirit alive. I’ve shown THE AFRICAN QUEEN myself – gorgeous colors on that one! Anyway, glad to hear there are other keepers of the flame out there in this business where there ain’t no money to be had but plenty of magic to be shared.

I too used to screen movies. Only, my neighbors thought I was weird.
I own about 10 prints and they are not in the best condition. Still, some friends are ga-ga that I am able to do this. We used to play drive in and broadcast them on the garage door so some could watch from their cars. (Did I mention some people think Im weird?)
We really enjoyed A Boy 10 Feet Tall (Sammy Going South). I also have The African Queen, Ten Little Indians, Up The Down Staircase, The Nuns Story (red), and Peyton Place.
Im seriously considering the purchase of a projector tv to show movies out at my pool at night.
Good luck on your future screenings. Its nice to see there are other movie nuts like me out there.

I wish I had a neighbor like you. Keep up the good work!

Congrats for keeping up a wonderful tradition in your own backyard! It’s simply lovely!
