Seriously. Listed in the local newspaper, The Passion is showing at the local drive-in movie theater. It just seems kind of odd…
“Hey Billybob, let’s get us a six-pack of Rolling Rock and go see that new Mel Gibson film at the drive-in!”
“Hot damn, Earl! And let’s pick up LouLou and Betty and we can do some funnin’ around and steam them windows up…”
Contrary to popular belief, drive-ins are not all havens for rednecks hoping to get some 'tang during the intermission, y’know.
Don’t sell the drive-in short, son. Where else can you watch two first-run movies for five bucks, AND drink beer at the same time? 
Besides, unlike the regular theater, I can tell people in my car who won’t shut up to make with the closing of the piehole. Do that to strangers, and you could find yourself on the receiving end of a fist or a bullet.
I don’t know. I’ve seen the movie. Doesn’t seem to be the sort of flick you would go to for “funnin’” in the back seat.
The blood is flowing, to be sure, but not, uh, there, knowwhutImean, Vern?
I agree with Chastain. I like drive-ins better than regular theaters because you have more freedom from the riff-raff and high concession prices. I think it’s a shame that most of the drive-ins around here have disappeared. 
Another thing…
Rednecks drink Rolling Rock? What happened to Coors pounders?
They could be giving the movie for free in the park for all I care…as long as people get The Message.
I know people who have kept from going to see it for fear of how they’ll react when they see what their sin has brought upon the Son of Man…Maybe if they had the option of getting to watch from the privacy of their own car it would get them to go…
The more the better…EVERYONE should see this incredibly powerful film.
I saw the film opening day. Thought it was great. Didn’t make me a Christian, though, anymore than seeing Attack of the Clones made me a Jedi.
I was gettin’ hot and heavy with my girlfriend at the time while we watched ‘Braveheart’, which could be argued was a very similar film to ‘Passion’.
