In 1983 the Talking Heads were on tour promoting their album Speaking in Tongues. It was big and flashy with epic stage pieces and theatrical lighting. Four nights of these concerts were filmed and packaged as Stop Making Sense, released in 1984.

A recent restoration has the film back in theaters.

Reset checks in with three fans on why you might want to go check it out.
