The Cure in Orange is a concert film by British rock group The Cure.It was filmed at the Théâtre antique d'Orange in the French countryside (Orange, Vaucluse), on 8, 9, and 10 August 1986. Band members Robert Smith (Vocals & guitar), Simon Gallup (Bass guitar), Porl Thompson (Keyboards, guitar and saxophone), Boris Williams (Drums), and Lol Tolhurst (Keyboards) make their way through 23 songs.
DVD release
Smith mentioned on the band's official website that The Cure in Orange would be released on DVD sometime in 2010 as it was only made available on VHS, Laserdisc and Video CD. The US edition of the Laserdisc suffers from the audio and video being significantly out of sync. To date, the DVD remains unreleased. It is unknown whether it will also be released on Blu-Ray, like The Cure's more recent video release, Trilogy.
Critical reception
Time Out London described it as "An astonishingly lavish production number for one of the world's less dynamic live bands, rendered noteworthy by its setting against the magnificent backdrop of an ancient amphitheatre [...] for Cure fans this is as perfect and cinematographically compelling a record of a gig as could be asked for. For the rest of us, it's a bit of a yawn. AllMusic Gave This Video 4 Stars Of 5 saying: "the mixing and recording of the show is pristine and would have made an excellent live album...With performance highlights including fantastic versions of "Primary," "A Night Like This," "A Forest," and "Faith," Orange is ample testimony to both the Cure's excellence and Pope's ability to showcase them at their best."
