She's Lost "Control"
Saw this film the other night, and man, it was so beautiful. Might not be for everyone, but if you love black and white photography, and you remember what it was like to be 16 and alienated and certain that the world is composed almost entirely of twats, and you appreciate good music, particularly art school post-punk, you'll love this.
What's remarkable to me, though, is just how authentic the footage is, which makes sense since Anton Corbijn was actually around during this period and directed the video for "Atmosphere." But more than that is the fact that Sam Riley looks exactly like Ian Curtis, and had all of his mannerisms down, especially his moves on stage, which are both cool and hilarious at the same time.
You should also check out Corbijn's photography, which is just amazing.
The clip below is from September 15, 1979.
