My cousin was suppose to interview a booker in town that booked the Drive-in,Still nothing yet,sad thing is they often get together for dinner.
Note on above post movie at the JOY DRIVE-in “A MAN CALLED NOON” is out on DVD maybe i outta give it a second look.
When"Planet of the Apes" played in the late 60’s I was told one employee dressed as a gorilla and greeted folks as they came to the movies.I hope to get other stories on about the Joy Outdoor Cinema or Joy Drive-in,whatever you want to call it.
Ruth Northington,Manager of the Joy Drive-in Died early this year.She had been sick for several months and had 6 major operations in the last month or so.So many Moviegoers in Hendersonville knew her and her husband Jim.
