WHEN IN HOLLYWOOD... BE SURE TO VISIT THE LEGION DRIVE-IN THEATER FOR A GREAT MOVIE-GOING EXPERIENCE 

Last night we went to see "The Dark Knight" at the Legion Drive-In Theater right here in the heart of Hollywood.  It was a perfect summer night for an outdoor movie.  This gem of a drive-in is located in the back parking lot of the American Legion Post 43. 

It's the first ever drive-in cinema in Hollywood. Only one of two U.S. drive-ins left that  show movies in 35mm prints.  For movie lovers, you have to check it out. The booth has DCI-compliant 4K digital projection with advanced stereo FM sound transmission.

We were greeted by a pleasant young woman at the entrance.  She took our snack order (it was part of the ticket price of $60 per car).  It's a tad costly, but that covers everyone in the car. Each person gets one soda, popcorn (free & unlimited) and a box of candy.  It's well-worth the price and especially for the experience. We loved it! 


There is a new glass enclosed projection booth. You can watch how the movie gets projected and it's a cool thing to see, especially when a reel switches from one to the other during the film presentation.

 This was an amazing movie-going experience!  The staff makes sure every aspect of your experience is pleasant and enjoyable.  

We forgot just how great Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight was starring Christian Bale as Batman and the late Heath Ledger as the Joker.  Summertime, an outdoor movie in the heart of Hollywood is hard to beat!

Great job with the projection, celluloid selection and service, Legion Drive-In Staff!  We'll be back often.

Until next time.
