In the early days of cinema, seeing 2 features in one evening (along with a cartoon and a newsreel) was par for the course. And when most major theaters switched to showing just a single feature, drive-ins and grindhouses were around to keep the tradition alive. Sadly today in the age of the multiplex, the idea of a double bill is nearly extinct. It has fallen on art house theaters like Los Angeles' New Beverly Cinema to keep the torch burning.
Unfortunately Cinema Nerds does not own a theater (yet?). Luckily for you readers, we are starting a regular column where we suggest some cool double features for you to try out in your own little home theaters!
