Everton: Howard's Way

2019 · 105 min

A warm, nostalgic trip through sporting glory, told by the men who lived it, with a bittersweet edge.

Directed by: Rob Sloman
Genres: Documentary
Starring: Andy Gray, Peter Reid, Kevin Ratcliffe

Tagline: The definitive story of Everton FC at the very peak of their powers in the mid-1980s
Overview: After a decade of struggle and misfortune Everton became the best side in the land. Even better than their all-conquering neighbours, Liverpool! They won the FA Cup, thrashed Man Utd 5-0, beat Liverpool, home and away, and then strolled to the league title with a record amount of points. They steamrollered the great Bayern Munich and won a first ever European trophy and, for a time, were probably the best side in Europe. We will never know for sure - because they couldn't prove it... This is the tale of a man with Everton in his blood, a team intent on greatness and a city united in defiance. A story told by all the heroes of the day - the men that made history.
