"Concert film rather than fiction, 'Stop Making Sense' nevertheless has a rich, benign interest in human connection and expression that owes as much to Demme as to David Byrne and Talking Heads. Building and cresting as the band slowly coalesces onstage, the movie's rhythms give the whimsy backbone; the whimsy gives the music depth. Twenty-four years after it came out, it's still one of the great music documentaries."
