R.E.M.'s Stipe draws the link between Corbijn's departure into film and his "audacious and courageous" move to London in 1979: "For a wildly successful, internationally known artist to shift mediums at the age of 52, and to have Ian Curtis as the subject of his premier feature, I think brings his odyssey full circle...

This intensely self-critical, self-reflective stranger who is so beleaguered by shame, this art stamp collector, stonemason, fledgling artist, eventual writer, master dancer, lover, husband...Günter Grass became me, his mouth rubberbanded shut.
