Just in time for its 40th anniversary, A-24 is re-releasing the famous Jonathan Demme-directed Talking Heads Stop Making Sense tour. The live performance was shot over the course of three nights at Hollywood’s Pantages Theater in December of 1983 and features Talking Heads’ most memorable songs. Grab your oversized suit, it’s time to dance. (dir. Jonathan Demme, U.S, 1984, 88 min)
“The overwhelming impression throughout Stop Making Sense is of enormous energy, of life being lived at a joyous high…It’s a live show with elements of Metropolis…But the film’s peak moments come through Byrne’s simple physical presence.” – Roger Ebert
