Control - by Anton Corbijn

I talked about this almost exactly two years back.


A movie by Anton Corbijn of Joy Division and the music and life, and eventual death, of Ian Curtis.

Peter Saville (gasps) and Paul Smith got together to make a ltd edt t-shirt for this movie launch. Already shown at Cannes in May, the official release is 5 Oct 07.

The t-shirt, costing a quid less than £50, 100% cotton and made in China is all sold out. Fuckers! Only 200 made.

Every 1.3373 seconds, that is the interval between each pulse of a neutron star which was featured on the cover of Unknown Pleasures.

Check out the movie site here.

I think I will read Touching From A Distance by Deborah Curtis again before watching. I hope somebody will bring it to Singapore.
