anche il rock ha il suo lato oscuro, che non poteva certamente essere dimenticato nel più importante evento cinematografico del mondo...anzi il lato oscuro del rock è stato, addirittura, messo in luce col film Control, di Anton Corbijn.
Il film Control, tratto dal libro Touching from a distance, è un biopic sulla vita di Ian Curtis, leader dei Joy Division, morto suicida nei primissimi '80.
Interamente girato in bianco e nero Control è un film angosciante, claustrofobico, paranoico e ansiogeno.

Ieri ci sono state 3 proiezioni del film all'auditorium zona duomo/via hoepli a Milano.
Io non ce l'ho fatta ad andare a vederlo, ma amici mi hanno riferito un po' di commenti.
Film in lingua originale, con sottotitoli in italiano e francese. Dialoghi molto lunghi, ma essendoci i sottotitoli si riusciva a seguire tutto molto bene. Bella la fotografia, (beh, con Corbijn si è in una botte di ferro! ).
Molto probabilmente uscirà ufficialmente nelle sale in autunno.

Joy Division movie premieres in New York
Dave Gahan, Sonic Youth and more turn out for Ian Curtis film
8 hours ago
The Ian Curtis biopic 'Control' made its US debut at the Chelsea West Cinema in Manhattan last night (September 25).
The warmly received film was watched by an audience that included Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode, model Helena Christensen, actor Steve Buscemi and members of Sonic Youth.
'Control' follows the story of Joy Division frontman Ian Curtis and is based on the book 'Touching From A Distance' by his widow Deborah.
The film was directed by Joy Division photographer Anton Corbijn, who moved from his Netherlands home in order to shoot the Manchester band in October 1979.
He subsequently became a regular NME photographer and went on to shoot iconic images of bands such as U2, Depeche Mode, REM and The Killers, among others.
Speaking to NME.COM at the screening, Corbijn explained that his emotional attachment and relationship with the band made up for his inexperience in film-making, and that 'Control' was not intended to be a traditional music biopic.
"It's an intense love story, and concerns a boy who follows his dream but doesn't like where he ends up," he explained. "I wanted to make sure that Ian was portrayed as normal, and so I felt it was important to surround him with an everyday background.
"A lot of people's lives are very mundane, but a great deal of beauty can come from these kind of environments too and Joy Division's music was a great example of this."
The film opens on October 5 in the UK, and from October 10 in the US on a limited release.

Losing Control: America forgets Ian Curtis is rather R.I.P.
Shortlist magazine has revealed that distributors in the US, working the new Anton Corbijn film Control, asked if Joy Division could perform live at the US premiere.
Says Joy Division and New Order bassist Peter Hook (pictured):
“Someone from the film’s US distributor’s office phoned up saying that the New York premiere was on 25 September and would Joy Division play?
“I replied, ‘Well, the last I heard, the lead singer was dead but I’ll give them a ring and see if anything has changed'.”
Control, which focuses on Joy Division singer Ian Curtis' life and eventual suicide on May 18 1980, is released in the UK on Friday (October 5); its soundtrack compilation, featuring David Bowie, The Sex Pistols and The Buzzcocks alongside the obvious two, is out now on Warner Music.

Anche sul myspace è presente questa richiesta.
E pure legittima direi.
Vedremo se è possibile vedere questo film in Italia, come Tanti Paesi già stanno facendo.
Intanto sostenete, se volete.
