Joy Division documentary screened

Control, which charts the life of Joy Division's Ian Curtis, is the latest screenTwelve offering this Saturday night.

Years after his death, critics and fans continue to write and discuss at length Joy Division vocalist Ian Curtis's music, possible motivations and inspirations. News of his suicide in 1980 spurred many rumours, further accelerating interest in his work and troubled life.

This interest continues today as a profile of Curtis's life has been made into a film entitled 'Control,' depicting this enigmatic singers personal, professional and romantic troubles that led him to commit suicide at the age of 23.

ScreenTwleve.co.uk at the Strule Arts Centre will present this film on Saturday night, July 5 at 8.30pm.

Critics have described this portrayal of troubled singer Ian Curtis as 'spectacular' and 'outstanding'. It received a standing ovation at Cannes Film Festival last year.

The film expands on Deborah Curtis's Touching From A Distance book, which was a personal account of her life with him, to give a fuller account of the man and his life.

ScreenTwleve.co.uk continues to grow and the screening of the film 'Once' last May had a record 65 members in attendance. 'Control' promises to be another popular choice so don't miss out and call the box office now on 028 8224 783.

Lined up for the August screening is 'Môme, La' (La Vie en Rose) another biopic, this time about the life of Edith Pief. There are lots more exciting news to follow soon as screenTwelve.co.uk brings more great cinema to Omagh.
