Song: Love Will Tear Us Apart
Artist: Joy Division
Album: Substance 1977-1980

To be honest, I really don’t know much about musical movements and history [of the last 20-30 years (punk, post-punk, new wave, from Sex Pistols to Elvis Costello, for instance)].  But, I heard a lot of good things about the movie Control, a movie about the lead singer of Joy Division, Ian Curtis, and finally got around to watching it last night.

It was good for a biopic.  I particularly liked how practically the entire film was shot with a wide open aperture.

Incidentally, I first heard about the band Joy Division from an (awesome) old desk partner, Sandy.  The movie totally made his idiosyncracies make a lot more sense.

Lastly, I had no idea that the remaining members of the band Joy Division formed New order!
