We Live In Time15

Directed by John Crowley | USA | 2024 | 1h 47m | Starring Florence Pugh, Andrew Garfield, Aoife Hinds, Lee Braithwaite, Grace Delaney

Almut and Tobias meet in an unexpected encounter that forever alters their lives. Through a series of poignant moments—falling in love, creating a home, and building a family—a challenging truth emerges, threatening to upend everything they’ve built. With stunningly nuanced performances by Oscar nominees Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield, this uniquely structured romance delves into the profound question: how do we make the most of our time in this world?

Reviews

‘The pair’s chemistry is off the charts and each set-piece a showstopper in this tragic romance.’
★★★★★
Kevin Maher, The Times

‘It’s such a joy to watch two such assured and natural performers allowed the room to exercise both movie star and actor muscles as well as showcase their ease with both comedy and drama.’
★★★★
Benjamin Lee, The Guardian

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!
