“Control” – Tribute to Ian Curtis
This movie is a life cycle of a famed singer – Ian curtis. (He is well known for his epilepsy dance moves too). It is a perfect life cycle of a rock star in a sense that it depicts the born, rise and the demise of a star. The movie revolves around the born of a star, his rise to fame, his music journey, his troubled family life and extra marital love affairs, his mystery illness, and his depression and his tragic suicide in the end.
The presentation is great with some outstanding cinematography. A perfect classic theme is maintained throughout the film. This is greatly helped by the fact that whole the movie is in black and white. Original Ian Curtis songs throughout the film makes the movie musically rich.
A music lover will definitely give an “A”. A Good movie for the other genre of viewers too.
