"Joy Division was sort of magic in Holland," said director Anton Corbijn to iW early on in TIFF, and pictured here at the premiere party for his film, "Control" about the band's ill-fated lead singer, Ian Curtis (played marvelously by Sam Riley). "Music had a great influence on me and I moved to England because of it..." The director went on to direct videos for Joy Division as well as U2, David Bowie and Depeche Mode. "Control" is his first feature. "As an inexperienced filmmaker, I needed an emotional connection," said Corbijn about why he wanted to tell the story of Curtis. "He's a mythical figure and there aren't any interview tapes [to draw from]." Looking forward post-"Control," Corbijn comment about his future filmmaking, "I learned a lot from this film and I don't need an emotional connection next time."
