Curtis & Dylan Get the Biopic Treatment
This autumn, as the leaves change color and fall from the trees and small children gorge themseves on dangerous amounts of candy, two fims chronicling the impact of two musical icons will hit theatres. Blessed be thy movie-goer.
“Control,” which follows the rise and fall of Joy Division front-man Ian Curtis, begins to hit theatres on October 10th. As you can see from the poster below, it’s already being considered “The coolest British movie of 2007.” Here’s where I admit to my utter lack of knowledge in regards to British films being released in 2007, yet manage to confidently state: “Agreed!”
“I’m Not There” has been getting a ton of press for the fact that it stars six different actors playing Bob Dylan throughout his life, including Cate Blanchett (who somehow manages to look more like him than any of em.) All the kids will be lining up for this one on November 21st. You can check out a clip from the film in which Blanchett’s Dylan meets Allen Ginsberg played by David Cross by clicking here.
