Gloucester Cycling Film night: William Fotheringham introduces "A Sunday in Hell"
2022-03-14 20:30 - 22:45 | Gloucestershire
The Guardian’s William Fotheringham joins us at Gloucester’s beautiful art deco Sherborne Cinema, to introduce a rare screening of ‘A Sunday in Hell‘, the classic documentary on Paris-Roubaix, cycling’s toughest one-day race. ‘A Sunday in Hell’ is widely regarded as the best cycling film of all, a groundbreaking documentary made with more than 20 cameras along the race route, as well as a footage shot from a helicopter – techniques that went on to become standard in high-level sports coverage. Danish director Jorgen Leth’s revolutionary film-making techniques capture the unique atmosphere of the race, as riders led by Eddy Merckx take on the gruelling, cobble-strewn course on a hot, dusty day in 1976.
William is the author of a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film: ‘Sunday in Hell: Behind the Lens of the Greatest Cycling Film of All Time’. At the Sherborne, William will tell us the inside story of the film and the race, and there will be a Q&A after the screening. William Fotheringham has covered professional cycling for over 30 years and is a former editor of both Cycle Sport and Procycling magazines. His many acclaimed books include ‘The Greatest: The Times and Life of Beryl Burton’; ‘Put Me Back on My Bike: In Search of Tom Simpson’; and ‘Merckx: Half-Man, Half-Bike’. William also worked with Bradley Wiggins on his autobiography, ‘My Time’. William was a great guest at our event at the Grand Central in October, talking about Beryl Burton. William will be selling and signing copies of his book ‘Sunday in Hell’ on the night, and selected books from his back catalogue.
The Sherborne is a lovely intimate cinema that holds fewer than 100 people. We have a strictly limited number of tickets available for this special evening, so do please book early to ensure entry. Seating is unallocated; there are no bad seats at the Sherborne.
The first 25 tickets for the screening are £10 (Concessions: £8) with a ticket-plus book bundle for £23 (The book’s RRP is £16.99). and can be bought HERE Full price tickets are £12/Concessions £10/Book + Ticket bundle £25
