Rivers of Steel kicked off its Carrie Carpool Cinema series at the Carrie Blast Furnaces this weekend with movies shot in Pittsburgh.
On Friday, “Flashdance” and “Out of the Furnace” were projected onto a large screen at the Rankin site, followed by “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” and “Kingpin” on Saturday.
In total, there will be five weekends of movies — one each month — through November at the blast furnaces. Each weekend will have a different theme.
Drive-in movies have made a comeback during the covid-19 pandemic with makeshift drive-ins popping up in neighborhood parks and large parking lots.

We moderate comments. Our goal is to provide substantive commentary for a general readership. By screening submissions, we provide a space where readers can share intelligent and informed commentary that enhances the quality of our news and information.
While most comments will be posted if they are on-topic and not abusive, moderating decisions are subjective. We will make them as carefully and consistently as we can. Because of the volume of reader comments, we cannot review individual moderation decisions with readers.
We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point quickly and politely. We make an effort to protect discussions from repeated comments either by the same reader or different readers
We follow the same standards for taste as the daily newspaper. A few things we won’t tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING. Don’t include URLs to Web sites.
We do not edit comments. They are either approved or deleted. We reserve the right to edit a comment that is quoted or excerpted in an article. In this case, we may fix spelling and punctuation.
We welcome strong opinions and criticism of our work, but we don’t want comments to become bogged down with discussions of our policies and we will moderate accordingly.
