It broke my heart when I went by the area this theater was at in 2006 and found an empty field. I saw so many of my favorite films there. Also, there were 2 screens in 1980 so they had to have added the second one earlier than ‘82.

A friend and I saw “The Godfather” at the Cicero Twin Drive-In. It was a very oddball, strange setting in which to see the classic Francis Ford Coppola film. I don’t remember a lot about the place but I do remember thinking that, due to the sheer amount of acreage used that it was kind of an antiquated though charming concept.
We only went here a few times as it was usually chaos by the early nineties. Seven of us piled into a pick-up to see Eddie or Set It Off? Who knows. It was fun and a shame teenagers today can’t have drive-ins w/o the fear of getting shot.
This drive-in opened May 2nd, 1969
