A FLIPPY FLOPPY FILM!
The Talking Heads performance documented in Stop Making Sense was already an eminently filmable proceeding long before director Jonathan Demme (Melvin And Howard, Swing Shift) got anywhere near it. The visual awareness of the Heads has always been a few cuts above that of most other rock bands, as shown by the interesting ambiguity of their album covers and videos.
