An excellent biopic of Curtis, who was already almost a legend by the time I got seriously into music (just a couple of years after his death). Just out of interest, I watched Control back-to-back the other night with Michael Winterbottom's 'Madchester' movie 24 Hour Party People, a semi-fictionalised account of Factory Records. It made for a fascinating comparison. I’d agree with your assessment of the movie.
