Going Attractions: The Definitive Story of the American Drive-In Movie

2013 • 85 minutes

About this movie

Once a vibrant part of American culture, nearly 5000 drive-ins once dotted the nation from big cities to small towns, but today less than 400 remain. In a nation that loves cars and movies, why haven't they survived?

Ratings and reviews

I loved this movie. Remember back in the early 1980's going with my then girlfriend. Luckily where I live now, we won a new system from Honda and still enjoy our drive-in. This movie need to be shown on tv to maybe re-spark the fun of drive-ins and bring them back to life. Great movie.

A nice documentary on the surge to keep the old drive in theaters in business. It also goes into the history and why they are nearly gone but a few die hards.

Brings back wonderful memories
