Movie: Control - 8pm Friday 1.Feb.2008 @ Central

Hi,
a friend and I are going to finally see this, supposed to be splendid I hear. Anyone interested in coming along, and perhaps for a drink afterwards @ Hairy Mary's, will be very welcome. Happy to make reservations, as Central isn't all that big a theatre.

Address: Rosenthaler Str. 39; 10178 Berlin -- all the way to the backyard, on your right. Ubahn Weinmeister Str., Sbahn Hackescher Markt, Tram M1, M4, M5. Tickets are 6.50Euros.

See you there! GF

Very, very good film. I posted to TT about it earlier: Movie: Control

Incidently, Sam Riley, the actor who plays Ian Curtis, currently lives in Berlin.

Enjoy!

I might head along to this - will know tomorrow.

Hi F.,

I think i will pop along as well. I'll confirm tomorrow. If i don't get a ticket i'll watch sth else and we can meet up afterwards.

@ Jamesm -- Would be nice if you came along. I'd be amazed if there was a problem getting tickets. And yes, Hackesche Hoefe Movie Theatre is right next door, with plenty to choose from. But if you come to the theatre a quarter to 8, really there shouldn't be a problem. Cheers GF

This is a great movie and very faithful to the original book published back in the 1990s.

Sam Riley's depiction of Curtis' onstage characteristics are of doppelganger proportions, also the guy that plays Hooky get some good lines.

A must for anyone who is interested in the development of alternative music.

I am coming too and bring another 'Holländer' who is visiting me. See you all at 7.45u in the central.

Is this in english do you know?

Indeed the movie in kino central was the original version (english), but with german subtitles.
