aGLIFF Summer Drive-In Spectacular

aGLIFF (the Austin Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival) presents camp classics once a month in the gently sloping parking lot of the Mexican American Cultural Center. They’re going all-out in their efforts to re-create the old drive-in magic (they’ve even secured corporate sponsorship for the event). Filmgoers can tune into the audio on their FM band, while a Fifties-style car hop services their car and vintage drive-in promos provide pre-show entertainment. Films start around dusk. Located at 600 River (one block south of Cesar Chavez on the west side of I-35). $5/$4 aGLIFF members. www.agliff.org.
