Book Reviews of Drive-in Movie Memories: Popcorn and Romance Under the Stars
Book Review: An excellent follow up
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are interested in nostalga and/or drive in theatres, this is an excellent book. You may remember that Don and Susan Sanders came out with an excellent coffee table book entitled: "The American Drive-in Theatre." The original book was packed with previously lost photographs and memories of the drive in theatre. Don and Susans latest work, "Drive in Memories : Popcorn and Romance Under the Stars," while physically smaller, is full of additional pictures and information about the drive-in theatres of yesterday. The new book is well written and edited. It will make a worthy edition to any one interested in the drive-in theatre.
Summary of Drive-in Movie Memories: Popcorn and Romance Under the Stars
Before multiplex cinemas and cable TV, the drive-in movie theater was the place to hang out. This colorful album is packed with photos and stories that transport readers back to that innocent (and sometimes not so innocent!) time when Saturday night meant a hot date in Dad's De Soto before the big outdoor screen. Topics covered include: "Backseat Love at the Passion Pit," the real reason so many found drive-ins irresistible; "Neon Lights, Neon Nights," the art of classic neon signs aglow; "Red Hots, Popcorn and a Coke," the original fast food; "Children Under 12 Admitted Free," playgrounds and pajamas; and "The Stars Under the Stars," Hollywood stars and stars-to-be at the drive-in.History & Criticism Books
