Bob and Harvey Weinstein would like to get the studio that they named after their parents, Miriam and Max, back again, Reuters reported on Monday. They will reportedly bid against Lionsgate and possibly Summit Entertainment for Disney's Miramax film division, the wire service said, citing sources familiar with the situation. Although some reports had indicated that the Weinsteins' own troubled finances would likely discourage them from bidding for the studio, David Glasser, operations executive at The Weinstein Co., confirmed the brothers' interest. "We are keen to look at the company and we will see what happens in coming weeks," Glasser told Reuters. The Weinsteins sold Miramax to Disney in 1993 for $70 million. Disney reportedly is now seeking at least 10 times that figure for the studio, which it has effectively shuttered.
