There are two films about my favorite band about to be released. 'Control' and 'Joy Division' are a biopic and documentary, respectively about Ian Curtis, the brooding baritone of Joy Division, the quintessential post-punk band from the Manchester music scene in the late 1970s. For those who don't know, Joy Division is the predecessor band to New Order. The band dissolved shortly after the suicide of lead singer Ian Curtis. So far, no release date for either film has been announced.
The movie is great! Don't miss it.

The Joy Division was a great group. I have not heard of these films, but I would love to see them. Thank you for the mention!
