Drive-In Movie Ads : Drive in Intermission 1960's

[@GEMINITREKKER]

I have Drive~In Memories as I was born in the 6o's and remember seeing "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" at a Drive~In around age 6. Also I went to a Drive~In as late as 1980 in Vermont! Many Drive~Ins left so get there this Sping! ☆☆☆

[@NijiMarii]

That casual, jazzy sounding piece of music at the beginning is just so mellow. I guess it really hypes you up for snacks!

[@squashpants]

During the cops and robber sequence or directly afterwards?

[@marilynnewtongibb7008]

I. KNOW ALL ABOUT THESE CASUAL PEOPLE AND THEIR PIECES OF MUSIC TOGETHER WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND THEIR FRIENDS

Love the music and soothing narrators voice telling how many minutes until showtime! Really miss going to the drive in’

[@RetroPacman]

Grew up in the 80's and we still had drive in's that had a lot of the 60's and 70's intermissions still. Good times.

[@dorothyriskowitz763]

Love these old drive in ads. What great memories

[@MisterGee7]

Those were the good ol' days. I'm glad I was born to experience going to the drive-ins, and enjoy watching those intermission ads. Many thanks for posting this video. 5 Stars!

[@TimelordR]

I just upped my cholesterol count just by looking at all those drive-in snacks! How i miss the good old days of Drive-In theaters. Thanks for the memories.

[@821lancevance]

I live in ohio we still have at least 24 drive in movie theaters still in operation.

[@Bernievidtime]

One of the placards should have advised people to be sure to go back to your own car.

[@TheStork47]

I used this as the intermission in a documentary I made. Good stuff, good stuff.

[@annamarcalleti2207]

THE DANCING HOT DOGS AND POPSICLES DANCING AND SINGING WAS CUTE🍨🍦

[@ladycplum]

I still remember the first drive-in film I ever saw..For Your Eyes Only.

[@squashpants]

Yeah, James Bond movies were made for showing at drive-ins. Fit perfectly.

[@RIXRADvidz]

while people were piling into the concession stand my mom would pop open a cooler from the trunk and haul out sodas, beer, sandwiches chips candy, we'd sit there and watch people drop their drinks on the way back to the car. thanks for that memory of the Tijeras Drive-in Albuquerque

[@johniepointer8236]

I miss those days of my youth

[@marybranicki3354]

I grew up in Brooklyn, so I only went to 2 drive-ins in my whole life, but saw many in TV shows and movies back in the late 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. I wish I could have went to more of them. Thanks for posting and the wonderful memories ❤😊

[@bobbyfrancis8957]

At 6:10, I already had some Folgers coffee, along with my Coffeemate!

[@starrfisher]

to this day I still have not seen coffee in the snack bar

[@plushblueep]

Had so!

[@starrfisher]

I guess I have been in a hurry to see my movie I just did not bother to look or ask

[@plushblueep]

starr fisher Well, when you get back to that drive-in you were going to, when intermission is 10 minutes long, you can get some delicious coffee!

[@starrfisher]

don't know when I will get back to the drive in

[@doloreshuntoon7698]

Oh, how I wish that they have rich & creamy-smooth ice cream milk shakes at the drive-in movie theaters!!!

[@doctortabby]

That was fun to watch, brings back some memories. Thanx for posting.

[@janetgibson4686]

These ads are still as effective at making me hungry as they were then

[@glennsitts4938]

Wow, I remember those cheap Paper Coffee Cups with the Handle. Small weren't they?

[@fromthesidelines]

The better for you to get a second cup. ;)

[@KonElKent]

It's free refills, so a "small" is really just a "large, with some extra walking"...

Risch Health Care center is now at 537 North Columbus Street, Lancaster Ohio..The Martin Music center is long gone.

Since most of this was originally seen almost 60 years ago, I'm not surprised.

[@doloreshuntoon7698]

My, oh my!!!

[@doloreshuntoon7698]

I sure felt really sorry that Martin's Music Center is gone for good in Lancaster, Ohio. And now it's Risch Health Care Center which is in that very same location as that currently defunct Martin's Music Center. But the only problem is that I've never-ever been to Lancaster, Ohio. Sorry.

[@steventuck1524]

We always brought our own sammiches and snacks along with a big ice chest full of ice cold pabst blue ribbon beer in the bottle! We said to hell with that over priced God awful crap they sold at the snack bar...especially after an outbreak of salmonella sickened dozens of people!

[@luisreyes1963]

I'm so jealous. 🙁

[@imthatguythatmakesdumbvide9330]

Too bad we don’t get bumpers like this to come along with them , I didn’t know there was 24 in Ohio I have 1 of the worst ones , I’m surprised it’s still going strong . The drive in itself is fine however the drive in is literally right next to some train tracks and trains pass by all the time you have to keep at least 1 window up if you want to hear your movie while the train passes by

[@821lancevance]

@@imthatguythatmakesdumbvide9330 that sucks. The drive in by my house is pretty sweet. It's nice and quiet with no railroad tracks. Lol

[@GEMINITREKKER]

Yes there is one off the Ohio Turnpike near Cleveland! A double screener too! I travel between New England and Iowa frequently and look forward to what's on the screen at the drive in. "Back to the Future" was playing there last time I drove through!

[@watchout361]

Get rid of smartphones! Bring back the drive in theaters!

[@GEMINITREKKER]

They have made a come~back due to Covid! One good thing that has happened.

[@watchout361]

THOSE HAMBURGERS WERE BURNT!

Haha, We prefer to describe them as 'well done'.

[@mattronwilliams7327]

When you mean the 60s you mean the early 60s like before 1964 when things still felt like the 50s because these commercials seem conservative compared to the last years of the 60s

[@itiswhatitaintanditaintwha1427]

Just look at the burgers 🍔 frying up in that one commercial. Swimming in grease! Unhealthy, but who the €Π*¶ cares!

I would like to know if the couple at the coffee add at 6:00 are still alive..the people in these drive in adds are like totally gone or forgotten..we are talking like 60 plus years ago..

[@squashpants]

Here's my guess. Judging from clothes and hairstyles, I am thinking filmed in 1960. Man was 30. Woman was 28. Add 58 years (it is 2018), and man is 88, woman is 86. Or dead, more likely.

I wonder if they ever served fried chicken at concession stands. Just wonderin'.

[@fromthesidelines]

Not that I know of. The "snack bar"/"concession/refreshment stand" would have to have used deep fryers for the chicken- and with everything else they were preparing, it would have been too much for some of them to use and maintain.

[@pythonfan1]

Barry I. Grauman You're right, even though they did use the deep fryers to serve up French fries, which was another popular snack served at the concession stand.

[@doloreshuntoon7698]

I wonder if the drive-in movie theaters have restaurant-style tables & chairs inside the refreshment stands. Just wondering.

If we are talking about the same sequence, it looks like some sort of tomato relish that they are putting on the burger, which actually sounds like it could be quite delicious.
