The Other Way Around12A
After 14 years together, film-loving couple Ale and Alex decide to end their relationship. Determined to part on good terms, they throw a celebratory party for friends and family. But their idealistic plan quickly unravels, revealing that breakups are rarely as simple (or cinematic) as they seem. Jonás Trueba gives the romantic comedy a fresh, stylish spin in this bittersweet, award-winning tale of love, closure, and the messiness in between.
Reviews
‘This is a fresh and often moving take on the evaporation of intimacy in long-term relationships and how formative family life can linger, often unhelpfully, in adult love.’
★★★★
Kevin Maher, The Times
‘In posing substantive questions about the nature of romance and relationships, it’s smarter than virtually any American studio romantic comedy of recent years.’
★★★★
Adam Solomons, IndieWire

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!
