Talking Heads Put Life Savings Into Stop Making Sense
. Directed by Jonathan Demme, who later won an Oscar for The Silence Of The Lambs, the film concentrated on using dramatic lighting, lingering close-ups and very little in the way of audience footage. But that innovation came at a cost, as Frantz explains to Rolling Stone. "One thing nobody every mentions is the fact the band paid for the movie," he says. "Yes, we got a loan from Warner Bros, but it was against our royalties so the four of us coughed up the money. "We didn't have a whole lot of savings, so we were basically putting our life savings into the movie. I'm glad we did, because not only did we get it back, but we have a great film." A lot more.
