Blow-Up15

Directed by Michelangelo Antonioni | UK | 1966 | 1h 51m | Starring David Hemmings, Vanessa Redgrave, Sarah Miles, John Castle, Jane Birkin

A fashion photographer in 1960s London spends his time partying, listening to music, and photographing models in his studio. One day, after a photoshoot in the park, he closely examines his pictures and believes he has captured evidence of a murder. In his first English-language feature, Italian master filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni brings his existentialist ennui to the vibrant streets of swinging London. Winner of the Palme d’Or for Best Film at the Cannes Film Festival in 1967.

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!
