We're lucky enough to still have a drive-in here in Sacramento, CA. People go and set up their barbecues, lawn chairs, someone even has double-deck sofas on the back of a pickup truck. I doubt if it's anything like the heyday of drive-ins, but it was certainly an experience.

Enjoyed the presentation of this. To make it even more authentic, you should have had headlights going across the screen every 5 seconds, traffic noise from the adjacent freeway and make the picture about half as bright

@Gannett2011 You just gave me a great idea. Thanks!

VERY nicely done! This is the intermission trailer I vivdly recall from my childhood jaunts to the beloved Drive-Ins! MANY years later, in 1996, when operating my own Drive-In, we used this intermission! Awfully eerie seeing it on the giant screen after all of those years, but I got a very warm and giddy feeling! Life is good! Thanks for this ultra-cool presentation!!!

@davelounder Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. I sure miss the Drive-in.

I especially enjoyed the sound track. It sounded just like I remember. Also, you played some of the all time classic clips and it's nice to be able to click on entertainment such as this. I'm seriously concidering giving up TV, after all, now that You Tube is showing uncut episodes of several classics, I wouldn't be missing out, now, would I? Anyways, thanks for taking the time to produce and post this video!

Thanks. Those are some of my favorite clips. It is always an added bonus when you get to see these visual yreasures. I've been to a few drive ins where the oporators don't think the expese is worth it, and it IS expensive. They don't understand how these innane and rediculous in som cases bits of 35mm films can boost yjeir snack bar revenue. When I was a kid, I alays marveled at the "Ten Minute" intermissions at the now demolished NORTHSIDE that always seemed to run AT LEAST 15 minutes!

When I was in high school, there was a drive-in theatre a short drive away (now replaced by a housing development). One of the kids in my electric shop class had built a home-made parabolic microphone. His aunt & uncle lived just behind the drive-in, and he'd rig up the microphone to pick up the sound from the speakers and played it over a loudspeaker.

@FlashMaster659 I used a background of a Drive-In theater then added the video over the screen. On the sound, I added an audio filter to give it that realistic feel. Thanks for watching.

@videomix22 did u use the sky and the cars as the background or did u record this in the 60s?
