Each summer, Alamo Drafthouse, one of the countries best movie theater chains based in Austin, TX, shows classic movies in their iconic locations.

This year's theme for the Rolling Roadshow is "We Are All Workers" and so far has featured six movies: Jackie Brown in Los Angeles, Dirty Harry in San Francisco, There Will Be Blood in Bakersfield, CA, Convoy and Red Blood in Las Vegas, The Blues Brothers in Joliet, IL, and Robocop in Detroit.

All of the screenings are free and take place on makeshift screens outside. If you missed the first six screenings, there are still three more, and it looks like they saved the best for last:

Tomorrow, August 19, The Alamo is bringing Rocky, Rocky II, and Rocky III to the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia, PA. Moviegoers will sit on the same famous steps that Rocky ran in the first film.

On August 20, you can watch On The Waterfront on the piers of Hoboken, NJ where the movie was actually filmed.

Finally, the series ends with a screening of The Godfather II on a rooftop near Little Italy in New York City where Robert De Niro tracked his target in the movie.
