HOW TO:
Make sure when you purchase your ticket(s), you do the following:
1)PURCHASE AN EARLY BIRD ($23) or DAY OF TICKET ($28) which includes the car fee and the first ticket for the driver.
2) GO TO ADD ONS: Purchase an additional $8 per person ticket for each person after the driver in the car.
As long as you purchased the EARLY BIRD or DAY OF ticket, you can always pay for additional people in your car at the gate.
3)PRE-ORDER ANY CONCESSIONS OR MOVIE MERCHANDISE you would like from the additional Add-Ons. You can pick up all concessions & merchandise at our table in the middle of the Parking Lot.
To attend, you need a car with an FM radio or a handheld radio you bring yourself. We will space out cars to make sure folks can safely maintain 6 feet of distance. We ask that folks stay in their cars unless they are picking up concessions or using the restroom. Whenever you are out of your car, you are required to wear a mask for everyone’s safety.
IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, PLEASE BRING A SMALL OR REGULAR SIZED CAR (sedan sized or smaller). We want to make sure EVERYONE gets a great space. SUVS, TRUCKS, CARS WITH HIGH ROOFS/RACKS/ITEMS ON ROOF often have to be parked further away from the screen to avoid sightline issues.
If you bring a larger car, arrive as near to when we open our gates as possible to get the best possible space.
We close out our March 2021 Cult night series with a look at the movie that made Paul Thomas Anderson, Mark Wahlberg, John C Reilly, and many others in the cast big “f@#!ing” stars: BOOGIE NIGHTS.
A sprawling ensemble look at the San Fernando Valley porn industry from its glory days of the 1970’s through its transition to video in the 1980’s, BOOGIE NIGHTS finds Anderson using his sensational story cleverly as subtler examination of the transition of cinema itself from the artsier 70s to the more blockbuster oriented 80s as well as how broken people can find each other to form tight-knit if imperfect new families.
In many ways BOOGIE NIGHTS is both a look at the filmmaker that Anderson would become as well as the filmmakers who clearly greatly influenced Anderson. It’s also a very funny, wildly stylish picture with great performances by Burt Reynolds, Julianne Moore among many others.
So let’s see where it all started: PTA’s BOOGIE NIGHTS.
Best always,
