I watched "control" filmed by the UK/US/Australia/Japan Shikoku, and saw Ian Curtis's dreamy dance moves. Maybe in the eyes of some people, punk is naked violence and noise, and I I think it is a catharsis of human primitive feelings.


In 1973, when Ian Curtis was a teenager, he was a high school student with his eyes painted and he just locked himself in his room and listened to the likes of David Bowie and Lou Reed. music. For him, the lifeless town of Mark Lesfield in his hometown is like a silent prison, and only the glam rock that is burning in London is the antidote to the indulgence of youth.


Entering the marriage hall prematurely, Ian Curtis's relationship also began to become hesitant, with his wife Deborah Curtis (Samantha Morton) on one side and his lover Anneke Ho on the other. Nell.


In May 1980, on the eve of the U.S. tour that finally began to prepare, Ian Curtis, who was desperate, hanged himself at home at the age of twenty-three. That night, he was watching Werner Herzog's film "The Wanderlust" and listening to Iggy Pop's album "Idiot."
The film and the music are almost perfectly combined. When the background music plays the band's own song "Love Will Tear Us Apart", Ian and Deborah are standing on the street saying goodbye. The scene could not help but burst into tears.

It's not just the performance of the actors, it can be said that the performance of the whole film is very exciting. This is not a clichéd rock music recording of ups and downs, but a film that can move the emotions of all audiences, and it is definitely not just those who love music people. "Control" allows us to see the struggle of a mortal, the take-off and shatter of dreams, the inability to resist the temptation of love and the torment of an imperfect body.

PS: I have been looking for relevant information about the beautiful female reporter (Ian Curtis's lover), but have not been able to find it. Bean friends help. . Thanks.

    Overall it's not bad, the main characters are really similar. It's just that the second half is a little too Qiongyao, and I feel that it does not express the core idea of ​​IAN

Control quotes

  • Annik Honore: Ian...

    Ian Curtis: Hmm?

    Annik Honore: I'm a little scared.

    Ian Curtis: Scared of what?

    Annik Honore: Scared of falling in love with you.

  • Ian Curtis: I don't want to be in the band anymore. Unknown Pleasures was it. I was happy. I never meant for it to grow like this. When I'm up there, singing they don't understand how much I give and how it affects me. Now they want more. They expect me to give more. And I don't know if I can. It's like it's not happening to me, but... someone pretending to be me, someone dressed in my skin. Now we're going to America. I have no control anymore. I don't know what to do.
