A friend of The Smiths' Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce has made a documentary about the legendary Manchester band, and it's out on DVD on 16 Jul. The doc apparently tells The Smiths story from Rourke and Joyce's viewpoint, and includes quite a bit of commentary from the two band members. Kaiser Chiefs' Ricky Wilson and Nick Hodgson, New Order's Peter Hook, Buzzcocks' Pete Shelley, and Mark E Smith of The Fall, also all appear. The doc has been made by one Stephen Petricco and will get a screening at Manchester's TV and film hang out TV21 on 15 Jul and at Fopp's London TCR store on 18 Jul.
