saw it in the theatre and it was great! the actor playing ian did a much better job in this film than his portrayal "24 hour party people".

Yeah, it's a great film indeed. It focuses more on Ian Curtis romantic life because as far as I know, all the story was taken from Ian's wife book. One of the best films based on a musician's life.

It came out in 2007 and on dvd over the summer. I'm sure you could pick it up at any video store (any good one, at least). It's a British film and it only had a limited release in U.S. theaters, so I'm not surprised that you hadn't heard of it until now. It was directed by Anton Corbijn, who directed Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box" and a bunch of other music videos.

Anyone here see Control, the movie about Ian Curtis? I watched it earlier today. It focused on his romantic life more than anything else, but nevertheless it was a pretty good movie. There are also some performance scenes which were pretty cool, and the actor who played Curtis did a really good job. Joy Division fan or not, it's worth checking out.
