Hi guys.

I've been running double features on a regular basis for about 4 years now. Here are some given examples. We celebrate the old fashioned drivein theater, except we do the show indoors. I'm just not equipped to do it outside as much as I would like. Double features, intermissions, cartoons, shorts, previews. And the films I select work well.

Grease /w/ American Grafitti

Wizard of Oz /w/ Cabaret

The Star Wars Trilogy in Scope (Yep it goes real late)

and so on.

What are some of your "bookings." Come on, give us some ideas!

:-)

I've run the trilogy as a triple bill at a drive-in before. Just made it off the screen before I got washed off the screen. That was 35mm and (a lot of) 2000' reels though.
