Critic Reviews
True Stories is David Byrne's funny, worried, loving celebration of a disoriented America. [27 Oct 1986, p.103]
It doesn't ask much of anything except that you come along for the ride. Riding with Byrne is pretty much a hoot. [09 Nov 1986, p.K1]
True Stories may well appeal more to those who don't know much about Mr. Byrne's music career than those who do. The soundtrack songs have the catchy simplicity of Talking Heads' most recent and least demanding compositions. And the film's imagery, expertly captured in bold, bright colors by Ed Lachman, will be even more striking to those who find it novel.

Byrne is a major musical artist, as he was shown to be in his rock concert film Stop Making Sense, but as a filmmaker
he has barely stretched his muscles. [31 Oct 1986, p.A]
