Far From Heaven12A
In 1950s Connecticut, Cathy and Frank Whitetaker seem to embody the perfect suburban family. But beneath the picture-perfect exterior, their marriage is in crisis, and the world beyond their home is fraught with racial tensions. When Cathy must choose between living a lie or following her heart, her decision ignites gossip and alters the course of her life forever. A loving homage to Douglas Sirk’s socially conscious melodramas, Todd Haynes’ exquisitely crafted film is bold, visually stunning, and unflinchingly candid, speaking aloud what 1950s cinema could only hint at.

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
