Small Things Like These12A
In 1985, in a small town in County Wexford, Ireland, a coal merchant makes his routine deliveries to a local convent. One morning, he stumbles upon a shocking secret, forcing him to confront both his own past and the silent complicity of a community dominated by the Catholic Church. Cillian Murphy and Emily Watson star in this haunting and emotionally powerful drama adapted from Claire Keegan’s Booker Prize-nominated novel.
Reviews
‘I was so rapt, so caught up in this film, that I wasn’t aware that it was going to be the ending until the screen faded to black. It is an absorbing, committed drama.’
★★★★
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
‘Small Things Like These is a tight-lipped Irish drama even more suffused with sadness than the log-line implies, and shouldered with hypnotic grace by a very special Cillian Murphy in his first post-Oppenheimer role.’
★★★★
Tim Robey, The Telegraph

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!
