Unmade Beds is a 1976 American independent No Wave film directed by Amos Poe starring Duncan Hannah, Eric Mitchell, Patti Astor, Kitty Sondern, and Debbie Harry.[1]
The black and white film was shot by Vincente Galindez in the style of guerrilla filmmaking with available light in a car, in city parks and on the streets of New York City on a shoestring budget with a small cast and crew. Unmade Beds was heavily influenced by the films of the French New Wave, particularly Breathless[2] but contains ironic post-punk wooden dialogue during conversations that lack natural expressiveness, as in the films of Andy Warhol. The soundtrack consists mainly of jazzy or modern classical or romantic solo piano music performed by Ivan Kral.
