Entertainment Competition - Atonement

The talk of the festival circuit during the summer of 2007, and winner of a BAFTA and five prestigious BIFA awards, CONTROL is one of the most critically acclaimed films of the year, and a British cinematic triumph. The film tells the compelling story of Joy Division's enigmatic lead singer Ian Curtis, who tragically died at the premature age of 23.

Recalling Curtis' aspirations that reached beyond the trappings of small town life in 1970s Northern England, and his desire to emulate his musical heroes such as David Bowie and Iggy Pop, we follow Curtis as he joins a band and begins to thrive. Married to Deborah at a young age, Curtis is distracted from his family commitments by a new love and the growing expectations of his band. However, his battle with epilepsy adds to his depression and surrendering to the weight on his shoulders, Curtis commits suicide at the age of 23, finally finding the peace that had escaped him in life.

CONTROL is out on DVD now courtesy of Momentum Pictures and to celebrate we are giving one winner and their guest a fantastic weekend break in Manchester - the location of the film.

The winner and guest will win 2 nights bed and breakfast in an 'Enviable' room at Abode Manchester with Champagne and Champagne truffles in the room on arrival. They will also get a three course dinner for 2 on one night in the Michael Caines Restaurant at Abode Manchester.

ABode, the growing collection of lifestyle hotels established in 2005 by hotelier Andrew Brownsword (owner of The Bath Priory, Gidleigh Park and Sydney House) and two Michelin-starred chef, Michael Caines (Gidleigh Park and Michael Caines at ABode) will launch ABode Manchester (formerly the Rossetti), the fourth addition to the group, in April 2008.

Michael Caines is at the helm of all ABode food and drink. ABode Manchester will boast an MC Café with the prospect of outdoor eating, the excitement of a Bar MC and the signature MC fine dining restaurant and Champagne Bar. The evolution of Michael Caines' restaurants continues at ABode Manchester with the Champagne Bar fusing with the restaurant in a modern style. The new format also sees Executive Chef, Ian Matfin, giving diners two choices: signature Michael Caines' dishes from the a la carte menu, or a selection of dishes from the same menu in a tapas format for those who prefer to graze at the bar.
