Barton Fink15

Directed by Joel Coen | USA | 1991 | 1h 56m | Starring John Turturro, John Goodman, Judy Davis, Michael Lerner, Steve Buscemi

In 1940s America, a New York playwright relocates to Los Angeles after accepting an offer to write Hollywood scripts. While working on an uninspiring B-movie script and living in a rundown hotel, he struggles with chronic writer’s block. Fortunately, he finds help from a charismatic salesman who lives in the room next door. The Coen Brothers won the Palme d’Or for Best Film at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival for this darkly comic satire of Hollywood commercialism and artistic self-delusion.

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 don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
