filmmaker amos poe dies at 76 red white and blue british museum ball invites controversy and morning links for december 26 2026 1234768167

Filmmaker Amos Poe, a key figure in New York's No Wave cinema movement, died on December 25 at age 76 after a battle with cancer. His seminal DIY films such as 'The Blank Generation' (1975), 'Unmade Beds' (1976), and 'Subway Riders' (1979–80) helped define the punk scene of 1970s New York, breaking from earlier formalist traditions with gritty, energetic works made on minimal budgets with amateur actors. Separately, the British Museum faces internal controversy after director Nicholas Cullinan proposed a 2026 fundraising ball with a 'red, white, and blue' theme to celebrate a planned loan of the Bayeux Tapestry from France, with some staff criticizing the color scheme as being in poor taste amid a rise in far-right activity in the UK.
