In AmericanUtopia, Spike Lee captures a performance from the smash Broadway run of this exhilarating hymn to community and connection from the former Talking Heads frontman and his multicultural troupe. Read THR's review:
Despite the countless technological innovations in the 36 years since the release of Jonathan Demme's, that iconoclastic time capsule of a 1983 Talking Heads show is still considered by many to be the greatest rock concert film ever made.
Part of the film's pleasure is the up-close access it affords not just to professorial postmodernist Byrne, but to an international troupe of 11 insanely talented musicians, all of them rock stars in their own right, with their own distinct personalities. The entire company is barefoot, wearing the same gray suits and shirts, which adds to the egalitarian nature of the performance.
Byrne gives a lesson on the layering that goes into a music track by breaking down the components on a roof-raising"Born Under Punches." But in truth every number here, as scrutinized by Lee, Kuras and editor Adam Gough, is a master class in musicianship and a demonstration of the communal exultation of playing in a band.
