I have a KNOXVILLE paper,Sept.24.1967 that has THE CAREFREE DRIVE-in On HIGHWAY 61,not 62 as Mr.Brown has stated. They were playing in case Mr.Brown wants to know “DON’T MAKE WAVES” Tony Curtis,Admission $1.00.Now Wednesday.
Coming next was"FASTEST GUITAR ALIVE" and “YOUR CHEATING HEART”
After that for Saturday night was “GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH” and"EVERYDAY IS A HOLIDAY".
Sept. 24 1967 it is a Sunday and the CINEMA DRIVE-In is playing “REDLINE 7000” and David Janssen in"WARNING SHOT" The next movies were “THE WAR WAGON” and “FLUFFY” what strange double feature.
I was at Augusta College when they booked “Tango” in the film series.The professor said there was two versions and the college was getting the"R",but when the CAPRI THEATRE downtown was raided they decided to pull it. I never did see it. Brando nude? not me. I bet “MIDNIGHT COWBOY” could get by with a PG-13 today. You know it was"X".
Oh, Before the"M" rating it was S.M.A. {suggested for mature Audience} I have a one-sheet or two with that on it. {Probably,Something like Bonnie&Clyde}.
TLSLOEWS,yes it means “M” mature. then it was changed to GP which really confused parents.{see PAINT YOUR WAGON,Daniel Village theatre} then PG,which made sense.When they got to PG-13, I think I was out of the theatre business.
The opposite would be seeing “JEREMIAH JOHNSON” on the big screen outside.All the snow in that movie showed every crack in the Drive-in screen,drove someone like me nuts. Heck, i can spot a wad of gum on an indoor screen that no one with ever notices,Guess it comes from 7 years in the business.TLSLOEWS.remember CUE marks.Rookies today, have no idea what CUE marks are.
Chuck 1231,my cousin who managed the Carolina found a picture of a Theatre on fire: I have the picture somewhere: Maybe it was the Carolina. CAROLINA THEATRE {Hendersonville}.
Yeah,please do on the Diane 29. I have visited Kings mtn,but never caught a film there.Beautiful Drive-in with the Mountains behind the screen. Took a few pictures of Kings Mtn. Visited the old DIANE 29 site years ago, a shopping center was in part of the old Drive-in,but part of the booth/snack bar was still standing.

I just have a bad habit of collecting Movie ads and never getting rid of them.COULD I BE A HORDER?

I would be willing to bet the VIKING had already stopped showing movies,with FLEA MARKET on the marquee.

TLSLOEWS,this theatre is actually,probably CLOSER to you. Georgia is a BIG state.

“WINNING” the Paul Newman racing epic opens at National Hills with the “M” rating.1969.
In 1956 it was owned by J.E. Duncan.
Wow, so “SHADOW OF THE HAWK” played somewhere else besides the IMPERIAL. What a horrible film.
Of course,THE MARTIN DRIVE-in was owned by MARTIN THEATRES. They also ran the Forest Drive in, in that city.
Finally figured how to do this,I could pop popcorn without supervision!
