Reviews:
"Why should you see it? "Some people visit the past for sentimental reasons," says Corbijn. “Some people visit the past to understand the present better." Control is not in the sentimental exercise category.” by Chris Docker
“...for those seeking an intuitive perspective into the anguished spirit of one of the most influential alternative bands in history, you will certainly find it in this depressing but incredibly beautiful film.” by Jay Gormley
“Control is an extremely moving experience whether or not you have foreknowledge of the events of Curtis' life. It is a film that has the power to touch and leave memories that are indelible. “ by Howard Schumann
