A drive-in movie retrospective
In retrospect the mash-up was inevitable: the collision of car culture
and movies. Richard Hollingshead is generally credited as the first to
come up with the concept of the drive-in movie in New Jersey in the 1920s
after he tacked a screen onto trees in his backyard and placed a Kodak
projector on the front of his car.
