Unmade Beds
(Amos Poe, 1977, USA, 16mm 77 min) Amos Poe, considered by many to be the father of modern independent American cinema, made his rst feature lm, Unmade Beds in 1976 as an homage to Godard's Breathless and the French New Wave. As Poe explains, '"I wanted to start where Godard started, to go back to basics: innocence, romanticism, bohemianism, all things that made up New York City for me at that time." He cast a remarkable group who, for the most part, had never acted before: Debbie Harry from Blondie, the artist Duncan Hannah and recent arrivals like Patty Astor (who, with her Jayne Manseld body, would go on to feature in several No Wave lms and eventually open the groundbreaking Fun Gallery in the East Village).
