Universally acclaimed as one of the best concert films ever made, Jonathan Demme’s Stop Making Sense documents the groundbreaking band Talking Heads at the height of their career. The film made technical history as the first concert film made entirely utilizing digital-audio techniques. Filmed during three concert performances in Los Angeles in December 1983, Demme’s creative genius and the band’s explosive energy make the film an exhilarating and exciting event. Upon release, critic Pauline Kael wrote, “A dose of happiness from beginning to end. Stop Making Sense is close to perfection.”
