Description

Uncommon 25 x 38 color proof of the teaser movie poster for Jonathan Demme’s 1984 cult classic Stop Making Sense, a concert film of the rock band Talking Heads, which was shot over four nights at Hollywood's Pantages Theatre in December 1983, when Talking Heads were touring to promote their 1983 album Speaking in Tongues. The poster depicts lead singer David Byrne in his ‘big suit,’ an absurdly large business suit that he wears for the song ‘Girlfriend Is Better.’ In very good to fine condition, with scattered creasing.
