Control
2007 · TMDB 7.5
Directed by Anton Corbijn
The story of Joy Division’s lead singer Ian Curtis, from his schoolboy days in 1973 to his suicide on the eve of the band's first American tour in 1980.
Why it matters
Anton Corbijn's monochrome portrait of Ian Curtis, the Joy Division frontman who found fleeting connection with Annik Honoré before his suicide. Sam Riley's Curtis is a study in stillness and suppressed voltage.
