it totally blew my mind. it was the best Ian Curtis depiction anyone could have hoped for. Anton Corbijn was lucky to come across this boy on the street because no one else could have pulled off Ian quite like him. in some scenes, it is insane how much this man resembles him! i also think the music is performed phenomenally;i was super impressed. anton corbijn did a heck of a job for his first feature film. i loved the black and white, contrary to some people's opinion. it fit the entire mood of the film. this movie should be recognized as one of the greatest genre films of all time. a must see for all joy division/new order fans. still a good movie for everyone else to enjoy.
