Talking Heads Reuniting at Toronto Film Festival for First Time in Over 20 Years to Discuss Restored Concert Film

  • Talking Heads band members will reunite at the Toronto Film Festival for a Q&A with Spike Lee, marking their first public appearance together in over 20 years.
  • The event coincides with the 40th anniversary and 4K restoration of their acclaimed 1984 concert film "Stop Making Sense," directed by Jonathan Demme.
  • The restoration will premiere at the festival and also receive an exclusive IMAX release before a wider theatrical run.
  • Relations between Talking Heads members have been strained since their 1991 breakup, with legal threats made over use of the band's name.
  • While a reunion tour is unlikely, the Q&A provides excitement for fans of the influential new wave band.
