Stop Making Sense

We’re burning down the house with a special Dance Party screening of Stop Making Sense on opening night, Friday, September 29 at 7:30pm (regular admission prices)! Wear your dancing shoes and groove along with Talking Heads on the big screen! The movie will continue to play all week with non-Dance Party screenings, but THIS is the night to take it to the river, drop it in the water and dance in the aisles!

The greatest concert film of all time, Stop Making Sense brings to the screen The Talking Heads at Hollywood’s Pantages Theater in December 1983: David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison, alongside an ecstatic ensemble of supporting musicians. Oscar-winning filmmaker Jonathan Demme captures the band at their exhilarating best, performing many of their most memorable songs, including Psycho Killer, Once in a Lifetime and Burning Down the House, in this new and complete 4K restoration for the concert’s 40th anniversary.  A thrilling blast of pure pop bliss with style to spare (all hail the arrival of David Byrne’s iconic “Big Suit!”), Stop Making Sense is an experience not to be missed on the big screen. An A24 release.  (Dir. by Jonathan Demme, 1984, USA, 88 mins., Not Rated)
