REAR WINDOW
1954 - RATED PG - COLOR - 1hr 55m
A true masterpiece by Hitchcock himself: A veteran photojournalist confined to his apartment with a broken leg (James Stewart), passes time between visitors by spying on neighbors. His imagination fuels speculation and he concocts names and lives for his 'subjects'. Bored voyeurism quickly develops into something more sinister, however, and a murder most foul may in fact be more than just in his head.
Hitchcock exerted his full potential at building suspense in this classic psychological thriller! Featuring a stellar cast including a radiant Grace Kelly.
"The deliciousness of watching the film as it's intended to be seen is that the big screen gives Rear Window back its claustrophobia." - Jeff Millar, Houston Chronicle

EVENT INFO: (please read!)
We're a mobile DRIVE-IN, keeping the authentic experience alive as best we can! We project a big 30 foot wide image on the side of the Old Hamilton Theater building (closed for many years now) and transmit the audio over the FM band (88.3FM) just like modern drive-ins. We operate totally via donations and even have a small concession snack bar at each performance, in addition to raffle prizes and special presentations during the intro and intermission segments!! COME JOIN US and KEEP THE DRIVE-IN ALIVE!
Drive-In Tips:
Arrive early if you plan to park and watch from your car! There's lots of space chairs and blankets in front of the cars. Pre-show runs 15-20 minutes (thus the movie does not start exactly at the time listed above, but please be courteous and do not arrive late). There will be a 20 minute intermission and raffle. ALL CARS observe a 3MPH SPEED LIMIT when driving in the parking area. Children are welcome, but we ask you supervise them at all times. Same with pets, we welcome them but they must be on leash and not free to roam. Access to the parking lot CLOSES after the movie starts, at which point we ask you park in the adjacent lot and walk in with lawn chair/blanket if you are late, so as not to disturb the folks watching the movie.
Drive-In Etiquette:
PLEASE KEEP CAR LIGHTS OFF during the show. --LARGER VEHICLES PARK IN THE BACK ROW (Minivans, SUVs, Crossovers, Pickups)-- If you have a car that cannot be parked with the radio running without lights coming on, PLEASE PARK OFF SITE and go the lawn chair route! During the movie, please keep talking and walking around to a minimum. We also ask folks to refrain from smoking close to other cars or attendees. There's plenty of space on the grass by the entrance and you can still see (and usually hear) the movie.
Snack Bar & Raffles:
DONATE for SNACKS at our Concession Stand equipped with popcorn, hot dogs, candy and refreshments! There's usually themed cupcakes and/or other treats plus A RAFFLE with awesome prizes!! Raffles are held during intermission and usually feature a movie-themed prize-pack!... And always - Small bills greatly appreciated at the concession stand. PLEASE DON'T LITTER -- TAKE ALL TRASH WITH YOU OR DEPOSIT IT WITH US AT THE CONCESSION STAND!
