Drive-in Cinema

The Rocky Mountain Women’s Film Festival has joined the drive-in movie trend, bringing viewers classic favorites from past festivals, as well as new releases. Even better, they run three showings over the weekend, so there’s a way better chance you’ll be able to score tickets than you’ll get with single-showing drive-ins. This weekend’s film is Meet the Patels. Ravi Patel is a man with a problem. He is longing for a love that fits his past, present and future while battling the loving meddling of his well-meaning family. Humorous and touching, Meet the Patels is the exact soothing balm your heart needs in tough times.
8 p.m., July 23-25, former Gazette building parking lot, 30 S. Prospect St., $25, rmwfilm.org/drive-in-cinema
