"I've got a tape I want to play."

Stop Making Sense is director Jonathan Demme's remarkable concert film that captures the enormous energy and joyous highs of a Talking Heads live performance.

Band members David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison are joined by Bernie Worrell, Alex Weir, Steve Scales, Lynn Mabry and Edna Holt in this groundbreaking concert film that is packed with the Talking Heads' most memorable songs. Wall-to-wall music, beautiful cinematography and the legendary "Big Suit" make this "one of the greatest rock movies ever made" (Rolling Stone).
