Video: For family owners of Mansfield Drive-In, business is 'more than a movie'

One of Michael Jungdens life passions was owning and operating The Mansfield Drive-In, a 40-acre 1950s gem of nostalgia located in the small eastern 窪蹋勛圖厙 town.

When he first purchased the location, it was overgrown with weeds and grass. But under Michael's watchful eye, the drive-in, and his family, flourished into something meaningful.

After his death from cancer in 2020, the torch passed to his wife and two daughters. The Jungdens are determined to carry on the spirit and tradition of the drive-in where families and friends gather in the summer months to enjoy a memorable movie experience.

With emotions of young love, community and nostalgia 窪蹋勛圖厙s mini doc 'More Than A Movie' explores the story of The Mansfield Drive-In Theater. For more 窪蹋勛圖厙's original Mini Docs, visit ctpublic.org/minidocs.
