Legally Blonde12A

Directed by Robert Luketic | USA | 2001 | 1h 36m | Starring Reese Witherspoon, Luke Wilson, Selma Blair, Matthew Davis, Jennifer Coolidge

When Elle Woods gets dumped by her preppy boyfriend – who’s decided a future senator needs a “serious” girlfriend – she does what any self-respecting sorority queen would do: she gets into Harvard Law School. To win him back, obviously. Except once she’s there, something unexpected happens: she’s actually brilliant at this. Warm, whip-smart, and endlessly quotable, Legally Blonde is the ultimate feel-good film about defying every assumption people make about you, and looking fabulous while you do it.

Our screening on Sunday 28th June will be introduced by award winning comedian Anna George.

This screening is presented in partnership with The Oxford Festival Fringe Preview Comedy Festival – a month-long comedy festival happening throughout July created and curated by QED Comedy Lab.

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!
