out of control

"Control" I'm not very familiar with the band Joy Division. After watching this film, I was surprised. It was gray and painful without even a smile. The rock and roll in black and white images is more like a pure Spiritual expression, that kind of emotion is too complicated, Ian Curtis is also a talented rock singer, but life is full of confusion, as well as painful epilepsy, and the town with strong black and white contrast is also full of a kind of chill Indifferent, the whole film doesn't have any artistic touches about rock, instead it's a rock spirit that makes people feel very real, this is the rock of Happy Squad, this is the rock of Ian Curtis, but it is so real Also out of touch with everyday life. This is another beautiful and profound biographical film.

John Cooper Clarke: The colour scheme is fuckin' brown Everywhere in chicken town, The fuckin' pubs are fuckin' dull The fuckin' clubs are fuckin' full of fuckin' girls and fuckin' guys with fuckin' murder in their eyes, A fuckin' bloke gets fuckin' stabbed waitin' for a fuckin' cab, You fuckin' stay at fuckin' home, The fuckin' neighbours fuckin' moan, Keep the fuckin' racket down This is fuckin' chicken town The fuckin' pies are fuckin' old, The fuckin' chips are fuckin' cold, The fuckin' beer is fuckin' flat, The fuckin' flats have fuckin' rats, The fuckin' clocks are fuckin' wrong The fuckin' days are fuckin' long, It fuckin' gets you fuckin' down Evidently chicken town
