Savage House15

Directed by Peter Glanz | UK | 2025 | 1h 54m | Starring Richard E. Grant, Claire Foy, Robert Bathurst, Erin Battle, Sebastian Armesto

Sir Chauncey and Lady Savage are desperate to impress. As ruthless social climbers in 18th century England, they’ve secured the ultimate prize, a dinner party with the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire. But with a pox outbreak and a Jacobite uprising as a backdrop, their grand plans quickly unravel into duels, decadence, and bloodshed. Claire Foy and Richard E. Grant lead this sharp, darkly comic period drama, which takes gleeful aim at the absurdities of class and power.

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!
