There's a new biopic of Ian Curtis (lead sing of Joy Division) coming out called "Control."

The official website is pretty damn cool. It feels like a Joy Division album in every way. A little hard to navigate, but worth it. Be sure to play the trailer.

The movie stars 10,000 Things front-man Sam Riley, and is based on the book Touching From A Distance by Ian's widow. Riley's performance and appearance is eerily uncanny. It's directed by rock photographer Anton Corbijn and looks amazing.

Here is a reaction from New Order.

I don't think I've ever been so excited to see a movie where I know the star dies in the end

Correction:

The film will be released in the UK on October 5th. It will have a limited release here starting October 10th.
