From QA: Jonathan Demme on the Making of 'Neil Young Journeys' | Rolling Stone By Steve Appleford:

Rolling Stone: Are you a fan of Bernard Shakey's work as a filmmaker?

Jonathan Demme: I have a lot of respect for Bernard Shakey.

I love Greendale. It's a wonderful American independent movie. It's fantastic. When David Byrne and I were getting ready to do Stop Making Sense, we were looking at concert films and trying to figure out how we could do a film that was different from all the rest, and also would be really good.

For David, Rust Never Sleeps was the one he wanted to be as good as.
