The writer of this article is a moron and doesn't know a first thing about Joy Division. "Took their name from a German military outfit"?! What the hell?! You can even find the accurate info what the name came from on Wikipedia!! "Tasty Belgian bird named Annik who poses as a journalist but gets more than just a few quotes”?! I really hope that's not the way the film presented ian Curtis, Annik and their relationship. I happen to have read the excellent bio "Torn Apart" (2006) with detailed account of his life, including a lot of input from Annik (who was working in Belgian embassy, and working as a journalist for a fanzine... not 'posing as a journalist'). And finally, it's well known that Curtis was having epileptic fits much before he met Annik, the article makes it seem as if the epilepsy came at the end of it all. I am worried if this is what the film actually makes ignorant viewer think! What an idiotic review.
