I think I will go and see this film [1] when it comes out..
A British film about the life and death of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis, starring a first-time actor, has earned a rapturous reception in Cannes.
Control [2] stars Sam Riley [3] as Curtis and Samantha Morton [4] as his wife Deborah [5], who has apparently been working on the film since 1994.
There is a Wikipedia page on the film [6] with more details.
