Happy New Year!

For one of our newest annual traditions, we’re thrilled to bring back this recent 4K restoration of one of the best concert films ever made. Jonathan Demme and the Talking Heads create a joyful, exciting, nonstop fun event on screen—and we won’t blame you for getting up, joining in, and dancing in the aisles.

“The drama that Demme evokes in ‘Stop Making Sense’ is the artistic self-transcendence that emerges from collaboration in performance.” – Richard Brody, New Yorker

“Talking Heads made for great material, with its revolutionary mash-up of punk, funk, art, avant-garde and other sounds. But what sets ‘Stop’ apart is the intimate look at that brilliant talking head, lead singer David Byrne.” – Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times
