Last night, I watched Joy Division's biographical film Control, which tells the story of Joy Division's lead singer from joining the band to hanging himself; at the same time, from the main line of marriage, it tells the story of a frivolous and melancholy British youth who is a white-collar role in an employment agency and a rock singer during the day. These two completely different roles change; Ian suppresses his inner desire for a free life and tries to be a good husband and a good father; on the one hand, the rapid development of the band makes the hero's sense of responsibility a burden; Ready to take his life.
Having a family of one's own, a stable job, a well-developed band - this may be the happy life of the middle class at that time under reason; but the development of the story allows us to see that all these happy lives in Ian's view have changed from one to one. It was a mistake to start. The dark battle of conformity and self-realization is happening in Ian.
When Ian finds that he can no longer control his life firmly, his emotions and even his own life are about to lose control, he exhausts his last control and ends his own life.
