Although I won't pay the ridiculous price, I'll still review this movie; as being, a deep and revealing insight into Ian's life leading up to his death. The black and white throughout the movie was great. Really gives you that 70s 80s feel. Other than that, actors were great. Really captured the image and life of the band.

Honest and respectful depiction of the life of Ian Curtis. It's a great film, good cast, good script and some bloody good actors. This film is a long time favourite.
