Stop Making Sense is a 1984 American concert film featuring a live performance by the American rock band Talking Heads.[3] The film was directed by Jonathan Demme and executive produced by Gary Kurfirst, the band’s longtime manager. The film was shot over four nights in December 1983 at Hollywood's Pantages Theatre while Talking Heads were on tour promoting their fifth studio album, Speaking in Tongues (1983). Stop Making Sense includes performances of the early Talking Heads single "Psycho Killer" (1977), through to their most recent hit at the time, "Burning Down the House" (1983). It also includes songs from the solo career of frontman David Byrne and by Tom Tom Club, the side project of drummer Chris Frantz and bassist Tina Weymouth.
The film was independently produced, and the band raised the budget of $1.2 million themselves. The four core members of Talking Heads are joined by backing singers Lynn Mabry and Ednah Holt, guitarist Alex Weir, keyboardist Bernie Worrell and percussionist Steve Scales. Stop Making Sense is considered to be a classic and the greatest concert film of all time.[4][5][6] The film is a pioneering example of the use of early digital audio techniques. In 2021, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".[7] A special 4K restoration of the film was re-released in theaters in September 2023 by A24.
