Review of Stop Making Sense (1984) by Bill C — 01 Apr 2013
Revisited on Blu-Ray Disc.
"the body understands the music before the head" - David Byrne.
Music so visceral and energized you can't possibly watch this re-released 1984 film sitting down. I was afraid to look away for fear of missing a single frame. Jonathan Demme and David Byrne collaborate on a masterpiece; surely the benchmark of concert films.
"Once In A Lifetime" is a revelation. Indeed, a performance of this quality comes along only once in a lifetime.
