It would be so easy to paint a depressing picture of ian Curtis,the sadness of his last few hours is well documented.this film doesn't embellish the sensationalism of his downfall or of his death,which is handled with great subtley.
The acting is generally excellent,particularly Sam Riley(Ian Curtis) and Samantha Morton(Deborrah Curtis)
The Music is Of Course,Excellent., with most of their repetoire played throughout the film
Watch the extras Great performance of "Transmission".
Exceptionally engrossing
