Cult classics for crate diggers
Crate diggers, romantics, nostalgics, and professional music snobs – this one’s for you… a double-shot that worships at the altar of the record store. From teenage rebellion to top-five lists, heartbreak, and vinyl elitism, we’re dropping the needle on two films that know your taste says everything (and nothing) about you.
Two nights. No skips.

Damn the man! Save The Empire! When Lucas discovers his record store will be sold to corporate chain Music Town, he gambles the day’s takings in Atlantic City to save it. This cult 1990s comedy celebrates misfits, music, and the spirit of independent record stores.
Rob Gordon’s Chicago record store struggles as heartbreak drives him to recount his top five breakups. Stephen Frears’ witty, BAFTA-nominated romantic comedy stars John Cusack in a funny, poignant journey through love, music, and reluctant adulthood.
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!
