The Cure In Orange
Direction: Tim Pope
(113min., hi-fi stereo. PolyGram)

Filmed in 35 mm, in the old amphitheater of Orange, in Azur Côte, France. In the summer of 1987.
Unlike the wild clips that praised him, here the Pope direction is quite behaved, worried in the registration of the show without cuts. Who is not affictionated it maybe gets tired of the 23 songs, but there are good moments: from exotic "Kyoto Song" to depressing "Sinking", or successes still resistant like "Inbetween Days" and "Killing An Arab".
