Located south of Carriere, which is to the north of Picayune, MS. The Pine Hill Drive-In was opened in February 1951 and was operated by T.V. Carraway of the Plaza Theatre, Prentiss, MS. The exit road and outline are still there. It looks like the frame for the screen is still up behind the main building.

September 2019 Google Street View shows the marquee frame and screen skeleton still on the site.
The Pine Hill Drive-In opened in February of 1951 for T.V. Garroway. It was his second of threee outdoor theaters. L.M. Hamilton bought the venue for their son returning from military service in 1953. In 1955, the ozoner got on a new widescreen tower to present CinemaScope films.
W.L. “Big Pic” Moseley and R.E. “Small Pic” Moseley took on the venue continuing it as the Pine Hill until “Big Pic” passed in 1968. The Pine Hill continued in the Mosley family under MLM, Co. until 1976 completing a 25-year leasing contract. It then became the Pine Hill Scrapyard. The entry should be the Pine Hill Drive-In.
