Offering a mix of auteur driven studio films produced during the New Hollywood era of the late 1960s and 70s all the way through the indie boom of the 1980s and 90s, Cinématographe will explore the wide breadth of American moviemaking, spanning numerous genres and scales of production. Curated and produced by Vinegar Syndrome's Justin LaLiberty, each limited edition release will be housed in a specially designed, cloth-bound, media book with embossed foil titles and custom molded disc trays accompanied by a slipcase featuring newly commissioned art and an individually numbered J-card.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMegs (Robert De Niro, \u003cem\u003eThe Deer Hunter\u003c\/em\u003e) and Dave (Ed Harris, \u003cem\u003eThe Right Stuff\u003c\/em\u003e) are two Vietnam veterans coping with their own mental-health issues post-war.
