An Entertaining Slice Of Pure Nostalgia
Of course, today, movie Drive-Ins are, pretty much, non-existent wherever you may happen to look across the North American entertainment landscape.But, in their heyday (1950-1970) they were about as popular as was hot-buttered popcorn, french fries, chewing gum, and milkshakes.
“Going Attractions” is actually quite an interesting documentary that (through stills, archival footage, and interviews) takes a close-up look at the inevitable rise & fall of the Drive-In movie phenomenon and how this venue helped to shape the course of one’s social activities back in the good, old days.
