Remember that the Weinstein’s bought up the documentary, “Joy Division” to complement their faithful, but dour and tedious dramatization of the dour Manchester post-punkers in “Control”? [ed. and presumably to boost sales of the dvd, bundling the two films together] Here’s the trailer for the doc which features the late Factory Records impresario Tony Wilson in what is presumably one of his last few recorded interviews. It has some great unseen footage and generally looks a lot more interesting that the Anton Corbijn version, which wasn’t terrible per se, just meek as a mouse.

This is beautiful.
When is this coming out?!? Good lord I have to see this.
And you are totally wrong about CONTROL and I’m sorry I listened to your review and waited until I got the screener to see it.
If you will refrain from making comments until after the blog lecture is over, we’d all appreciate it and have a little more fun.
I absolutely loved “Control” and I’m looking forward to this very much, as well. Thanks for posting the trailer.
Wow… Its amazing! Im great fan of Joy Division… I’ll be looking forward for this piece of art, hope will come soon to argentina!
