![]() The band performs in a circle and Bono’s back is to where the crowd would sit. Bono is the next member of U2 seen, in an empty hall, fiddling with a microphone, and then we see the entire band on the same stage performing the song. The Edge is the first member of U2 seen, walking near the East Link bridge, and then we see two boys walking around the docks. The song kicks in about fifteen seconds into the video with a camera panning over the water, and familiar Dublin sites such as the East Link bridge open. We then get a close up of Dublin’s Poolbeg towers, two industrial stacks that can be seen from the docklands. The video opens with atmospheric noises of gulls, and the horn of a ferry entering the Dublin dock areas. The video was filmed in August 1984, and debuted on MTV in September 1985. This video was the only time that U2 would work with Cammell. This was the first time that U2 worked with a director other than Meiert Avis who had directed all of U2’s videos to that point including “Gloria”, “New Year’s Day” and “A Celebration”. Cammell as a film director is perhaps best known for “The Wild Side” starring Christopher Walken and Anne Heche. Cammell turned in two versions of the same video, one in black and white and one tinted sepia in colour. (Due to U2's current YouTube refresh not all videos are available at this time, and we will be waiting on replacement of some of these videos.)įilm director Donald Cammell was approached to do the video for “Pride (In the Name of Love)”.
