My First Time at the Drive-In


A friend of mine at work told me about the Starlite Drive-In south of Bloomington so I thought I would go there.  I like to have things to look forward to to keep me focused and optimistic and, before quarantine, going to movies was always something to do.  Finding that there was any theater still open where I could social distance was an excellent opportunity.
I learned that they usually do a double feature on Friday and the Weekend and show one of the two films on the weekdays.  On Monday, they did Shrek, which I had not seen in a while and thought I would give a watch.  So I drove down, gave it a watch, and thought I would share my experiences here.
Right off the bat, the location was a bit disappointing.  It was kind of hidden away on the side of the road behind trees and further south of Bloomington than I expected.  Also, it was very dark since the clouds blocked out the moon and stars so navigating was rather unpleasant.
However, when I got there, I had a good time.  I drove up into my spot, turned my car off, and watched the film.  If I wanted to, I could also turn on my radio to listen to the film, but the speakers were loud enough where I was that I just listened to those.  The concession stand was particularly nice as it had a variety of options and the prices were low as well.
Overall, I had a good time.  It was nice to be out and about again and it was fun seeing a film at a theater again, especially since I could social distance.  So if you’re looking for something to do, I recommend Starlite Drive-In.  It is an experience I am glad I had.
