Boogie Nights18
In the San Fernando Valley in 1977, teenage busboy Eddie Adams is discovered by porn director Jack Horner, who transforms him into adult-film sensation Dirk Diggler. Under Horner’s paternal guidance, Dirk joins a surrogate family of performers and misfits, where success feels communal and limitless. But as the industry shifts into the 1980s, ego, addiction and exploitation begin to fracture those bonds. This is the second feature from Academy Award-winning director Paul Thomas Anderson, a swaggering rise-and-fall epic in which confidence and excess collide, turning the porn boom into a sour take on the American Dream.
Reviews
‘Paul Thomas Anderson’s porn epic is still gaudy, seedy fun…a stylish and energetic descent into the cocaine-fulled world of the 70s adult film industry’

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!
