Weinstein Company Picks Up Joy Division

One of the better movies at the Toronto Film Festival this year was Anton Corbjin's Control about the life and death of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis. I loved the movie (you can read my review here) and I was seriously bummed that I missed TIFF's other Joy Division film, Grant Gee's documentary called merely Joy Division. Well, things are looking good that I'll get another chance because according to The Hollywood Reporter, the Weinstein Company, who brought Control to TIFF after buying it at Cannes in May, have picked up the documentary with the suggestion that fans of the seminal British post-punk band will someday be able to own a double disc DVD of the two movies. As a huge fan of the band myself, this might be some of the best news I've heard in my entire week spent in Toronto, and things are certainly looking up for the fans of this band's often gloomy music.
