James and the Giant PeachU

Directed by Henry Selick | UK/USA | 1996 | 1h 19m | Starring Paul Terry, Joanna Lumley, Pete Postlethwaite, Miriam Margolyes, Susan Sarandon

Forced to live with his cruel aunts, James finds a way out of his bleak existence when he discovers an enormous enchanted peach. After rolling into the sea inside the buoyant fruit, James, accompanied by a crew of friendly talking insects, sets sail for New York City. Featuring stop-motion animation and live action, this inventive adaptation of Roald Dahl’s beloved children’s tale is brought to life by visionary filmmaker Henry Selick (The Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline). 

Tickets for Kino Kids Cinema Club screenings are £5 for Children (under-15s) and £7 for Adults. Screenings are relaxed, meaning that the sound will be turned down a notch, and the lights will be up a little, and we don’t mind if people make a bit of noise or move around during the film.

Sorry - you missed it!

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!
