The Goldman Case12A
In 1975, Pierre Goldman, a passionate and controversial figure in revolutionary left-wing activism, stood trial in France. Accused of four armed robberies, one of which led to the deaths of two women, Goldman pleaded not guilty. Dubbed the trial of the century, the case deeply divided the nation, highlighting the political, ideological, and racial tensions that defined 1970s Europe. Cédric Kahn’s electrifying dramatisation of these real-life events was one of the most celebrated films on the European film festival circuit, with Arieh Worthalter winning Best Actor at the 2024 César Awards.
Reviews
‘Gripping French courtroom drama with a chaotic energy…Kahn orchestrates the angry energy with an expert hand.’
★★★★
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
‘A compelling and immersive drama which attains a contemporary relevance without ever really trying too hard.’
★★★★
David Jenkins, Little White Lies

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!
