Every still image is a beautiful photo in itself

Control is a look at the life of Ian Curtis through a series of gorgeous photographs. The photographs just happen to be moving. It seems that at any moment of Control, you could take a still image of it, and it would make a great photograph at any moment.
Now there is a major problem with Control. We never really have a emotional connection with Ian Curtis or any of the characters, and, as you could expect, this is probably because the movie is so focused on its visuals. But, in away, it’s kind of a relief to have a movie in this genre to go in a different direction.
But how or weather or not you feel anything about the characters, it won’t stop you from being taken away by the visuals.
