Neworderonline.com has a collection of stills from Anton Corbijn’s forthcoming Joy Division biography film, entitled ‘Control.’ They look pretty amazing. You can’t expect the characters to look exactly like their real-life counterparts, but the attention to the details in the settings and in the clothing are astounding. I’ve been equally excited and apprehensive about this film, as bio pics tend to be cheesy and overly sentimental, but now I’m definitely leaning towards excited just seeing these photographs.
