Accolades for Award-Winning 'Drive-In Movie Memories' DVD

The award-winning Janson Media DVDDrive-In MovieMemories was highly recommended in a recent review by Educational Media Reviews Online. The film thoroughly depicts the unprecedented rise, fall and recent resurgence of the classic American pastime. Drive-In Movie Memories covers every aspect of the drive-in movie-going experience: early outdoor projection, the marriage of the car and the movie, architects and drive-in construction, sound projection solutions, food trailers and concession stands, families and entertainment, teenagers and passion, church services, celebrity appearances, exploitation films, and the tragic effects of television and the VCR. The review commends the film's ability to paint such a comprehensive picture while still remaining engaging throughout.

'This highly entertaining and well-edited documentary provides a detailed account of the history of the drive-in movie theater, from the 1930s to the present day. The film intersperses nostalgic, campy archival footage and photos with entertaining interviews and reminiscences from a variety of notable personalities in the film industry...'
