The Canon #99

Film critic Armond White joins Amy this week to pit two classic concert films against one another. Prince’s “Sign o’ the Times” goes head to head with Talking Heads’ “Stop Making Sense” in a musical battle for the ages. Amy and Armond discuss what makes a great movie musical, the potency of a strong-willed auteur, and each films’ respective generosity towards showcasing talent. Plus, they assess the evolving means by which we associate music and images before leaving it to a final vote. Which film will enter the Canon? Head to the Earwolf forums to cast your vote!
