Have I ever heard of Talking Heads? Nope
Have I ever seen a concert film before? Not a single one
Despite these facts, watching Stop Making Sense, a concert film for American Rock Band Talking Heads, filmed by Director Jonathan Demme (The Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia) is such a fascinating and hypnotic experience. It doesn't take very long for me to get into an atmosphere of the concert with players playing enthusiastically and the frontman singing, dancing and running around the stage in such an energy. I don't fully understand meaning behind some of the songs, some I do. And overall, the whole concert from start to finish is sheer perfection
