are Bezier curves also applicable in this context?

Bezier curves can be used to interpolate a given set of points, but simply using the points as the control points for the Bezier curve won't cut it. In general, a Bezier will interpolate the 1st and last control points, but only approximate the intermediate points. You could however use a piecewise Bezier curve to interpolate all the given points, and add additional constraints to ensure that the tangents and/or curvatures are continuous.
