Yerba Buena Center for the Arts says…

2007 was a banner year for Joy Division retrospectives, with remastered editions of the original albums, Anton Corbijn's striking Ian Curtis biopic, Control, and Grant Gee's eponymous documentary, which offers a treasure-trove of rare footage of the influential Manchester band. Researched by English rock scribe Jon Savage, Joy Division won raves alongside Control at the Toronto Film Festival. The Weinstein brothers have plans for a general release sometime later this year, but rabid fans will want to check out Yerba Buena's preview screenings for the added bonus of a Q&A with Tom Atencio, a close associate of the other members of Joy Division during their New Order years.
