Sure, Bogosian\u2019s play (upon which this film is based) was drawn in part from the tragic story of Alan Berg, the Denver talker assassinated by Neo-Nazis in 1984, but Bogosian might as well have been writing about many of today\u2019s most popular radio personalities, those who regularly sow anger, paranoia, and prejudice in the name of ratings.<\/p>\n<p>In the film, Champlain\u2019s rise to greatness closely mirrors that of Howard Stern\u2014at least it does in the manner in which it\u2019s depicted in Stern\u2019s wildly entertaining (if somewhat whitewashed) biofilm <strong>Private Parts<\/strong>\u2014as he is ridiculed in small markets by superiors who never understand his irreverence, pencil-pushing accountants who attempt to crush his creative approach to broadcasting under their thumbs because they either underestimate his instincts or are envious of his natural talents. Eventually, Champlain\u2019s growing popularity brings him greater opportunities, resulting in the creation of his addictive late-night program \u201cNight Talk,\u201d where he holds court with a seemingly endless parade of the barely educated, deeply prejudiced, easily angered, and hopelessly despairing members of society who phone his program for their few minutes of fame on the airwaves.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t really care that Barry hangs up on them. They don\u2019t really care whether or not he agrees with them. His callers desperately need to be heard by<em> someone<\/em>, and because they have likely been rejected by most of polite society, this is where they can get their \u201cfix,\u201d and this is where their opinions, however outrageous, will be heard by a larger audience than they could otherwise command.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-7997\" title=\"talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin\" alt=\"talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-bogosian-baldwin.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>While at first the national syndication deal appears to be all wrapped up and the audition broadcast merely a formality, Champlain\u2019s boss (<a title=\"Alec Baldwin\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_title.asp?search=Alec+Baldwin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Alec Baldwin<\/a>) begins coming down hard on him when he seems preoccupied with fears about caving in to possible demands that he \u201cmainstream\u201d his act. On the one night it\u2019s vital his show runs smoothly, Barry ratchets up the outrage and the on-air stunts, giving his behind-the-scenes sidekicks (Leslie Hope, John C. McGinley) the jitters. Fearing he\u2019s about to lose his identity entirely in the name of material success, Barry reaches out to his ex-wife (Ellen Greene) for her counsel\u2014or, more accurately, perhaps&#8211;her unquestioning support.<\/p>\n<p>Is it that Barry Champlain knows he\u2019s doomed as soon as he signs a contract for national syndication, and below the surface of his consciousness, decides to lash out with every strategy of self-sabotage he can imagine until he guarantees his own destruction? Does he want to purposefully spoil the deal and then create the image in his own mind that he was destroyed by ignorant outsiders that dared suggest the modifications to his style that would compromise his all-important integrity? Was his purpose nobler than that somehow, guided by the belief that only he understood what his audiences required\u2014sometimes a sympathetic ear, other times dismissive and insulting reminders of their intellectual or moral inferiorities, or sometimes just a few moments in the fickle limelight that would help others understand the human condition in all its variety and urgency?<\/p>\n<p>Is Barry simply driven to reach someone\u2014anyone\u2014to reveal his own fears about the world and his role in it?<\/p>\n<p>Or, does Barry just love to stick it to idiots because it gives him a contact high?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-7998\" title=\"talk-radio-poster\" alt=\"talk-radio-poster\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-poster-194x300.jpg\" width=\"194\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-poster-194x300.jpg 194w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/talk-radio-poster.jpg 275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 194px) 100vw, 194px\" \/>Stone and Bogosian\u2019s story is a recurring and eternal one, applicable in every time and every era.
