Additional Information
Based on the memoir TOUCHING FROM A DISTANCE by Deborah Curtis, Anton Corbijn's CONTROL is as near perfect a filmic telling of the story of Joy Division and Ian Curtis as any fan could hope for. It's also a beautifully rendered piece of cinema about the crippling effects of love and regret, and the salvation we seek in art. Born out of England's post-Sex Pistols punk explosion, Joy Division played a dark, minimalist version of the nascent sound, and became cult heroes thanks in part to their brilliant yet disturbed frontman Ian Curtis (played by an eerily perfect Sam Riley). Corbijn does a wonderful job recreating the Manchester band's music and live show, cutting straight to the essence of Joy Division's unique appeal. Credit must also be given to the three actors who portray the rest of Joy Division. Playing all the instruments themselves, they perfectly capture the band's powerfully stoic presence, one that translates both live and on record into the sonic equivalent of an existential crisis. <BR>CONTROL, however, is ultimately about Curtis' tumultuous marriage to his wife, Deborah (Samantha Morton), and the way that Joy Division became an aesthetic manifestation of his pain--one that was both physical (Curtis was an epileptic) and emotional. Corbijn evokes Curtis' hurt and isolation with both honesty and subtlety; a photographer originally, he frames each shot to look like a stark black-and-white photo from an album the audience was never meant to see, making Curtis' pain palpable and his eventual suicide that much more tragic. The overtones to the later suicide of Kurt Cobain are hard to avoid, but where Cobain's suicide has always been discussed in terms of the pressure he felt as a rock star, Curtis', as rendered by Corbijn, is a pain anyone could potentially be forced to suffer through.
Reviews
The Times - Sam Riley is a revelation., Independent - The coolest British movie of 2007., Q - Believe the hype, it's an extraordinary film., Film Review - Sends shivers down the spine[...]spellbinding., The Observer - Samantha Morton is dynamite., Uncut - Magnificently evokes the intensity and invention of Joy Division., Guardian - The best film of the year., Total Film - As touching a biopic as you'll see all year[...]Riley and the band excel, as Corbijn essays a mood both timeless and period-precise., Empire - Playing live, the cast vividly recreate the band's jarring guitar sound[...] CONTROL is up there with PERFORMANCE and LAST DAYS., Film 2007 - Absorbing and visually striking... Exquisite, Sight And Sound - The actors playing Joy Division perform the music themselves in a spot-on recreation of the band's sound and dynamic.

    Michel Berger and Luc Plamondon's 1994 Mogador production of the rock opera Starmania CD starring Bruno Pelletier, Luce Dufault, and Patsy Gallant, received in new and sealed condition, very quickly despatched and delivered. Seller boxed the CD as requested for safe delivery. Good photos and descriptions in the listing. Thank you so much for the recording of the best production of Starmania. Highly recommendable seller.

    The disc arrived exactly as described. The seller very kindly issued me a full refund, postage included. That was very decent because I had told them that I wasn't sure if the mistake was my own, or due to a listing error. It's a video disc, therefore, I couldn't use it on my CD only player. I'm very impressed with this seller having purchased other CDs from them with complete satisfaction. I will definitely continue to buy CDs from OUNZ. A top 5 star seller many thanks.
