A sweet and simple documentary showcasing 11 drive-ins and featuring all the great people behind the scenes that keep these historical venues running. Of course the owners are interviewed but so are a lot of staff members and I love how in the credits they took particular care to list every last employee whether they appeared on camera or not.
One of the subjects covered includes how Covid affected the industry and how its currently rebounding. At least as best as it can given all the other challenges that already existed pre-Covid. It's a very family and clanish group that run these places and the dedication and hours involved are akin to owning a restaurant. These are the real movie lovers.
Currently streams on Tubi, Vudu Free and Amazon Prime. 3.25 stars/5
