Amos Poe lost control of his documentary about the music scene that spawned artists like Blondie and Talking Heads after a dispute with Ivan Kral, the guitarist who made the movie with him.

That's an article from 2020. Does anyone know whether the streaming versions of Blank Generation are the original version with credit to Poe and Kral, or the more recent Kral estate version with Poe's name deleted and the film ending changed ?
