    Not exactly the same thing, but my wife and I saw Logan at a drive in theater when it came out

    Towards the end when he’s all fucked up and near death, the audio started doing all kinds of weird shit, cutting in and out, getting fuzzy and distorted, etc.

    We thought it was a pretty cool effect to show the sort of state he was in and we were all about it.

    Then we heard some crystal clear audio coming from the cars next to us, turns out it was just my car’s battery dying from running the radio.

    Still think it was a cool effect, would watch it again that way if it were an option.

    I’ve since picked up a battery powered radio for future drive-ins (we try to go at least once a year)

    Any of the original Indiana Jones films.

    They were storyboarded almost like a comic book. I once heard a University professor online talking about how you can watch any of the three original movies in black and white with no sound and still have a perfect understanding of the story; that’s how strong they are . If you ever want an entertaining evening, invite some friends over and do just that.

    The Last Battle (1983)

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Dernier_Combat

    “A scraggly, anonymous man (Pierre Jolivet) looks for love among a desolate, post-apocalyptic wasteland where almost no one speaks and roaming bands of marauders prey on the weak and unprotected. Assisted by a mad scientist (Jean Bouise), the man attempts to rebuild a broken-down airplane to expand his lonely, seemingly pointless search. At every turn the man is thwarted by well-armed, merciless thugs; however, hope rears its head he discovers one last surviving woman imprisoned by the toughs.”

    Mel Brooks’ Silent Movie. I guess you’ll miss the best bit in it though, where the only person who speaks is the mime Marcel Marceau.
