Stop Making Sense
In theatres now

What: Movie
Where: In theatres, Hot Docs Cinema
Genre: Concert documentary
Why you should watch: Not a mere nostalgia trip, Jonathan Demme captures the Talking Heads at the top of their game and the height of their inventiveness. Demme’s hand-held cameras and intimate shots of the band bring viewers into the performance with random acts of dancing seizing viewers the word over. Timeless.
