Ian Curtis Biopic Highly Touted At Cannes Film Festival

Control the highly anticipated biopic on the tragically short life of Ian Curtis, (frontman of Joy Division,) was well received at the Cannes Film Festival.

Most notably, the film won the prize for "Best European Film."

The director of this film is Anton Corbijn, who you may know as the director of many classic videos including: Nirvana's "Heart-shaped Box" video in 1993, U2's "One" in 1992, Henry Rollins' "Liar" in 1994, "Re-Offender" by Travis in 2003, "All These Things That I've Done" by The Killers in 2005 and "Talk" by Coldplay in 2005.

I am highly looking forward to this movie which should be out sometime later this year...
