The Star-Vue’s last appearance in the Motion Picture Almanac drive-in lists was the 1979 edition. Its ramps were run-down but intact in a 1983 aerial photo, but the industrial park was in its place in a 1993 aerial. (Although a 1999 (!) topo map still included it – another reason to stay skeptical of topo maps.)

The address for this Drive-in is 3286 Airway Dr, Santa Rosa, CA 95403.

It now consists of Siduri and Sonoma Estates vintners and the Catholic Charities.

This is not the same as the Redwood Drive-In, which is in Rohnert Park, but it had the same owner. This was behind the K-Mart, between Hopper Ave and Highway 101 at the north end of Santa Rosa.There is now a “Skyview Drive” where the theater entrance was.

I remember trying to catch a glimpse of whatever was showing as we drove by on our way home during night drives.

The Drive-Ins opening film was the roadshow version of Mutiny On The Bounty starring Marlon Brando and Trevor Howard. Both shows were sold out that night. Meaning 2400 cars showed up.
