\n A documentary film about\u00a0Leeds United’s European Cup Final appearance\u00a0is set to be screened on the Yorkshire Coast this week.\n <\/p>\n
\u2018Paris 75 – The European Cup Final Football Tried To Forget\u2019\u00a0will be shown at\u00a0The Stephen Joesph Theatre<\/a>\u00a0on\u00a0Thursday 16 and Friday 17 October\u00a0(both 7.45pm) with a further screening at\u00a0Whitby Pavilion\u00a0<\/a>on Sunday 19 October at 7pm.<\/p>\n The documentary tells the story of Leeds United\u2019s controversial\u00a01975 European Cup Final\u00a0against Bayern Munich, exploring the wider impact of the match on the club\u2019s identity and its supporters.<\/p>\n The film also tells the story of female football supporting pioneers and early foreign travel, with stories and perspectives from fans.<\/p>\n Directed by Harvey Marcus and produced by Bruise Film, the film features rare cine-footage shot by fans who travelled across Europe that season, as well as exclusive home video from Leeds United legend\u00a0Paul Reaney.<\/p>\n On their return to the Premier League this season, Paris ’75 is a reminder of the making of Leeds United. It is the story of one of football\u2019s most controversial teams, football\u2019s most controversial European Cup final, and the story of those who were there, those who played, and those who still believe Leeds United were the Champions of Europe of 1975.<\/p>\n The cinema describes the film as a story of football in the Seventies, full of history and heritage, with broad appeal for football fans of all allegiances.<\/p>\n The director Harvey Marcus said:\u00a0<\/p>\n “Like a lot of Leeds supporters, I\u2019ve seen and read all there is to know about that final.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n “But I\u2019ve never really heard anything from the fans\u2019 point of view \u2013 those few who ventured across Europe following their team, in an age when most people didn\u2019t travel much further than to the Yorkshire Coast\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n “While some of the Revie era legends offer a unique view of that season and that match from inside the dressing room, this really is a documentary for the fans by the fans, which will hopefully speak to neutrals too.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n “At a time when supporters have never felt so alienated and distanced from today\u2019s supercar-driving, noise-cancelling players and the anonymous corporates who own their club, Paris 75 is a timely reminder of what football used to be \u2013 the good and the bad.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Tickets for the screenings at both venues can be purchased online or by contacting their respective venues box offices.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A documentary film about\u00a0Leeds United’s European Cup Final appearance\u00a0is set to be screened on the Yorkshire Coast this…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":495330,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8814],"tags":[19000,19007,19024,748,19003,19010,19026,393,920,19001,19023,4884,19002,19009,19025,1860,16785,19004,19011,19027,9440,19015,19017,19014,19016,19018,19012,19013,18998,19008,19005,19021,16,15,8423,18999,19006,19022,19019,19020],"class_list":{"0":"post-495329","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-leeds","8":"tag-bridlington","9":"tag-bridlington-news","10":"tag-bridlington-weather","11":"tag-britain","12":"tag-driffield","13":"tag-driffield-news","14":"tag-driffield-weather","15":"tag-england","16":"tag-events","17":"tag-filey","18":"tag-filey-weather","19":"tag-great-britain","20":"tag-hornsea","21":"tag-hornsea-news","22":"tag-hornsea-weather","23":"tag-leeds","24":"tag-local-radio","25":"tag-pickering","26":"tag-pickering-news","27":"tag-pickering-weather","28":"tag-radio","29":"tag-radio-bridlington","30":"tag-radio-driffield","31":"tag-radio-filey","32":"tag-radio-hornsea","33":"tag-radio-pickering","34":"tag-radio-scarborough","35":"tag-radio-whitby","36":"tag-scarborough","37":"tag-scarborough-evening-news","38":"tag-scarborough-news","39":"tag-scarborough-weather","40":"tag-uk","41":"tag-united-kingdom","42":"tag-whats-on","43":"tag-whitby","44":"tag-whitby-news","45":"tag-whitby-weather","46":"tag-yorkshire-coast","47":"tag-yorkshire-coast-radio"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495329","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495329"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495329\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/495330"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495329"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495329"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495329"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
