Giveaway — ‘Control’

On July 27th, 2008

I was hesitant on watching the movie Control because the subject matter is not very uplifting or upbeat.  The film is art; it’s a masterpiece of entertainment.

The acting alone, Sam Riley and Samantha Morton, is transpiring while the black and white photography sets the eeriness of the coming suicide of  the genius of punk rock. The film went under my skin and stayed there throughout.  At times I wanted to reach out and help Ian Curtis; he was looking for help and solutions to his trouble life of epilepsy and love.  Yet, it ended tragically, a tale well told by director Anton Corbijn.

With that all said, I believe, you’d want to see this film — Control.  I have Control DVD to giveaway. Simply post your name and I will pick the winner Thursday July 31st.  Good luck.
