Directed by master filmmaker Jonathan Demme (“Philadelphia;” “Something Wild;” “Silence of the Lambs;” “Neil Young: Heart of Gold”) and frequently cited as THE greatest concert film of all time, “Stop Making Sense” documents Talking Heads at the height of their popularity, while on tour for their 1983 “Speaking in Tongues” album. Taking the stage one by one, the band is joined by a cadre of guest musicians for a career-spanning cinematic performance that features creative choreography and inventive visuals.
Rated PG. 88 minutes.
Part of our summer series: Rock Schenectady!
