Armageddon Time (15)

Dir: James Gray | USA | 2022 | 114 mins
Cast | Anne Hathaway, Jeremy Strong, Banks Repeta, Jaylin Webb, Anthony Hopkins

Please note the screenings on Thursdays 15 and 22 December will be captioned.

Anne Hathaway, Succession’s Jeremy Strong and Anthony Hopkins star in James Gray’s (We Own the Night, The Immigrant, Ad Astra) acclaimed latest; a semi-autobiographical story set in a richly remembered 1980s . 

Queens, New York: dreamy 12-year-old Paul (Banks Repeta) is part of a warm, rowdy Jewish-American family headed by his frazzled mother (Hathaway), his disciplinarian father (Strong) and a grandfather (Hopkins) who encourages his creative ambitions. His best friend is John (Jaylin Webb), an African-American boy at his school. But when they become increasingly prone to mischief, Paul’s parents decide to transfer him to the private prep school – white, privileged, and full of prejudice – attended by his older brother Ted (and also, formerly, Donald Trump). Meanwhile, in the background, Ronald Reagan rises to claim the presidency via a divisive campaign, heralding a cynical new era in American politics. 

Powerfully observed, Gray’s beautifully textured film is at once a warmly emotional coming-of-age drama, a deceptively far-reaching study of privilege and prejudice, and an evocative ode to an era.

“Worlds collide in this terrific coming-of-age drama” ★★★★ The Observer
