    A criminally overlooked movie. Sam Riley was nothing short of extraordinary. He didn't play Ian Curtis, he became him. Simply amazing.

      If Sam Riley had blue eyes, even his widow would believe he IS Ian Curtis.

      I had the pleasure of listening to Joy in my early 20’s. I wore their shirt like a badge of honor. Then had the privilege of smoking a joint and had a beer with their old road manager in Milwaukee Wisconsin of all places. During a Hanni El Khabib concert. One of the highlights of my life. I’ll never forget it.

      No he shouldn't have, he did a magnificent job for a first performance but as Ian not so much. He didn't really even like Joy Division going into this, his voice sounds very robotic and forced when he performs in the movie.

    • @Sanderus
      @Sanderus Před 7 lety +40

      If he liked or not liked Joy Division is of no consequence. Plus Oscars should be acting awards (of course they are not, which is a shame), not singing awards.

      The trouble is: he would be accused of playing HIMSELF.

    I went into this movie with only hearing maybe one or two Joy Division songs, knowing nothing about the band. I'm now completely addicted to them. I went and watched their live shows around youtube and was blown away by Ian's performances on stage. The actor here embodied Ian, heart and soul, no question about it. Also props the actors who played the rest of the band as well. They really brought the movie home. Very well done.

It's actually t. the best biopic ever made in my humble opinion... well done, 10 out of 10, love the bit when the vocalist from "Crispy Ambulance" trying to stand in for Ian Curtis as vocalist later on trying to do a deal with Rob Gretton on how much he will be paying for the impossible task..? BRILLIANT!!! Also love how the band keep farting nervously backstage before they play on the telly 🤣😂🤣😂☮️💕

  • @dkupke
    @dkupke Před 15 lety +42

    I wonder what it must have been like to see them perform this song live-especially the first time they did. Having see the footage of the actual performance they did do, Curtis underwent an utter transformation mid-song. He starts out so calm, downbeat and understated, but then launches into his crazy looking dance and screaming into the microphone with his eyes suddenly bugging out. Must have been shocking to see in person.

  • @philmstud2k

    For those who don't know, Sam Riley had never acted before this film. He was brought on specifically because he was a musician who bore a striking resemblance to Ian Curtis.
