The Humans15

Directed by Stephen Karam | USA | 2021 | 1h 48m | Starring Richard Jenkins, Amy Schumer, Steven Yeun, Beanie Feldstein, Jayne Houdyshell

In downtown Manhattan, three generations gather to celebrate Thanksgiving. As the night progresses and darkness falls, tensions between this fractured family come to a head. A remarkably insightful and brilliantly acted meditation on family adapted from the Tony Award-winning play.

Reviews

‘Extraordinarily well-acted, uncomfortably intimate…The Humans is going to haunt me and it’s going to haunt you too.’
★★★★★

Plan your visit

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 don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
