Monologist Eric Bogosian’s one-man theater piece Talk Radio, co-written by Bogosian and Tad Savinar, is searingly brought to the screen by Oliver Stone. Bogosian plays provocateur radio talk-show host Barry Champlain, whose constant espousal of his inflammatory views and ceaseless hectoring of his callers and listeners reaps equal parts love and hate. As his program rolls on, Champlain is revealed to be just as screwed up as any of his fans, if not more. And then he pushes one caller just a bit too far. In co-adapting the play for the screen, Stone interweaves elements of Stephen Singular’s factual book Talked to Death, the story of a liberal Denver radio personality who was murdered at the behest of a militant right-wing hate group. One word of warning: if you’re not a fan of the sort of radio depicted herein, chances are you won’t warm up to this film., Eric Bogosian plays a caustic call-in-show host in this character study directed by Oliver Stone. Dan: Alec Baldwin. Ellen: Ellen Greene. Laura: Leslie Hope. Stu: John C. McGinley. Chuck: John Pankow. Kent: Michael Wincott. Sid: Zach Grenier., Eric Bogosian puts in a virtuoso performance as Barry Champlain, a Jewish late-night radio talk show host whose contemptuous opinions of society provoke death threats from a group of neo-Nazis. Oliver Stone’s compelling drama is loosely based on the true story of Alan Berg, a radio host who was murdered in 1984 by a group of right-wing fanatics. Also starring John C McGinley and Alec Baldwin., Barry Champlain is a controversial radio talk show host whose provocative views and swaggering attitude has not only made him very popular amongst his listeners but also the main target of a militant right-wing hate group. Inspired by the destiny of real life radio host Alan Berg and awarded with the Silver Berlin Bear at the Berlin Film Festival in 1989.
