Plazadrome: Red Rock West 35mm

Plazadrome and Cinématographe present RED ROCK WEST (1993) and Cinématographe Pop Up Shop Videodrome and Cinématographe are excited to bring John Dahl’s criminally underseen 1993 neo-noir RED ROCK WEST to the big screen on Thursday May 15th, 9:00pm at Plaza Atlanta. The event will include a Cinématographe Blu-ray, 4K, and merch pop up shop in the lobby of Plaza Atlanta that opens at 8pm, and an introduction to the film by Vinegar Syndrome and Cinématographe’s Justin LaLiberty. Schedule: 8:00pm Cinématographe Pop-Up Blu-ray and Merch Shop in the Plaza Theatre Lobby 9:00pm RED ROCK WEST screening with intro by Justin LaLiberty About RED ROCK WEST Michael (Nicolas Cage, Wild at Heart), a discharged marine turned drifter, ends up in Red Rock, Wyoming in search of honest work. Wayne (J.T. Walsh, Breakdown), a local bar owner, offers Michael the dishonest work of carrying out a hit on his wife Suzanne (Lara Flynn Boyle, The Last Seduction) after mistaking him for the actual hitman, “Lyle, from Dallas”, that he hired to murder his spouse. Before Michael can split town with his downpayment, he runs into the real Lyle (Dennis Hopper, Blue Velvet) and, from there, all hell breaks loose. Directed and co-written by John Dahl (Kill Me Again), RED ROCK WEST is an endlessly twisty slice of distinctly American neo-noir set in the heartland of the United States. Featuring stellar performances from all three leads and a nearly repellent mean-streak, Dahl’s film is an often forgotten jewel of 90s crime cinema, making its US blu-ray debut in an all new restoration from Cinématographe. About Cinématographe Taking its name from the Lumière Brothers invention of the same name, Cinématographe is a new sub-label from Vinegar Syndrome that seeks to fill gaps in the canon of American cinema. 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. 35mm print from the Chicago Film Society collection at the University of Chicago Film Studies Center.CrimePT1H38MR2025-05-15
