The Last Showgirl15

Directed by Gia Coppola | USA | 2024 | 1h 28m | Starring Pamela Anderson, Dave Bautista, Jamie Lee Curtis, Brenda Song, Kiernan Shipka

When the long-running Las Vegas show she’s starred in for decades faces closure, glamorous showgirl Shelly must navigate an uncertain future while mending her fractured relationship with her daughter. Golden Globe nominee Pamela Anderson delivers a stunning comeback performance in this dazzling story of resilience, reinvention and rhinestones.

‘The Last Showgirl is both the role of a lifetime for Anderson, one that can fully capture her incredible emotional intensity and vulnerability, and (we can only hope) the start of a brand new career for her.’
★★★★
Kate Erbland, IndieWire

‘In Gia Coppola’s sensitive telling, the glitter swiftly disperses to reveal an elegiac meditation on memory and age, femininity and beauty.’
★★★★
Elizabeth Weitzman, Time Out

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!
