Nope, the Paramount Drive-In screened movies from various studios, including its debut feature Christopher Columbus (released by Universal-International in the US) and its final feature The Big Circus (made by Allied Artists). Paramount was simply the drive-in’s name and it had nothing to do with the film studio.

Did it only screen Paramount movies?

The Odeon Circuit shuttered the Paramount Drive-in after the October 10, 1959 showing of “The Big Circus.” A dairy interest bought the land for a new facility. The theatre was razed in 1959.
