STOP MAKING SENSE - 40TH ANNIVERSARY

A film by Jonathan Demme

Newly restored in High Definition to coincide with its 40th anniversary, the 1984 film was directed by renowned filmmaker Jonathan Demme and is considered by critics as one of the greatest concert films of all time.

STOP MAKING SENSE captures Talking Heads in all their kinetic glory and cements them as one of the most influential bands of the 70s and 80s. The film stars legendary band members David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz and Jerry Harrison along with an electrifying ensemble of supporting musicians. The performance was shot over the course of three nights in front of packed-out crowds at Hollywood's Pantages Theatre in December 1983 and features all their most memorable songs.

"Still the best concert film ever made. The sound mix on the restoration is stunning. When I realized I was in the same row as David Byrne as he danced to 'Burning Down the House', I kinda had an out of body experience."

"An exhilarating record of a group of talented people, at the peak of their considerable powers, having a great time making groundbreaking music that you can still dance to."
