The Address Is Incorrect. According To The May 30th, 1951 Aerial, The McKinney Drive-In Was Located Between Highway 75 And Not Too Far From The Former Highway 24, Now Route 380.

The Brazos Drive-In Opened On June 5th, 1952 According To The Hood County News-Tablet. The Brazos Drive-In Was Mainly Not An All-Season Drive-In At The Time.

In Late April 1957, The Brazos Drive-In’s Showing Of “The Ambassadors Daughter” Was Postponed And Closed For Weeks Due To A Massive Flood Warning For The Brazos River.

I Think The Reason Why It Is Named Brazos Its Because That The Granbury Area Is Just Either Near Or In The Brazos Valley of Texas.

PLEASE UPDATE: The McKinney Drive-In Continued Its Operation In Its Last Legs Along With The Ritz Theatre In Early 1972 Before The Westgate Cinema Opened Its Doors To The Public In 1973. The McKinney Drive-In’s Last Legs Were Showing Horror Flicks At The Time While The Ritz Continued To Be Running First-Run Films.

The McKinney Drive-In Is Still In Operation As Late As September Of 1971, Along With The Ritz Theatre, In Which The Ritz Continued Its Operation Until December 29th, 1971. Since 1969, Both McKinney Drive-In And The Ritz Are Operated By The McKinney Theatre Company. The McKinney Drive-In Did Not Appear In The December 6th, 1971 Theater Line-Up On The Counter-Gazette, Only The Ritz Appeared In The Line-Up. So The Latest Update Might Be That The McKinney Drive-In Was Closed Sometime In The Fall Of 1971.

The Ritz Theatre Didn’t Open That Late In October 1928. According To Newspapers.com, It Opened On October 8th, 1928 With Our Dancing Daughters.

And According To The McKinney’s Courtier-Gazette, The Ritz And McKinney Drive-In Both Closed Separately In 1971. The Ritz Ended Up Shutting Its Doors On December 29th, 1971 With “Man In The Wilderness” Being Its Last Film.

50sSNIPES commented about Capitol Theatre on Dec 5, 2019 at 12:00 pm

Actually In 1973, The Capitol Still Ran American First-Run Films In English According To The Dispatch Of Moline, Illinois. At The Time, The Capitol In Davenport And The Parkway In Rock Island Both Played Showdown And The Reissue Of Walt Disney’s Mary Poppins At The Time. So I’m Not Sure If The Capitol Ran Spanish Films For A Very Short Amount Of Time Or Maybe They Started Running Spanish Films By The Mid-1970s.

I Will Find It Out Later On…
