Before entire networks were built on populist personalities; before reality morphed into a TV genre; the masses fixated on a single, sociopathic star: controversial talk-show host Morton Downey, Jr. In the late '80s, Downey tore apart the traditional talk format by turning debate of current issues into a gladiator pit. His blow-smoke-in-your-face style drew a rabid cult following, but also the title "Father of Trash Television." ÉVOCATEUR: THE MORTON DOWNEY JR. MOVIE dissects the mind and motivation of television's most notorious agitator.

Review For Movie Évocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie
Is it flattering? No. Would he object? Not if it got him a little more ink. Because baby, it's all show biz.Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
A frank and worthy look at the trashy demagogue who ruled the airwaves in a spectacular, and spectacularly brief, two-year run.
Kyle Smith-New York Post
What remains of its subject ... is the melancholy image of a onetime poet and liberal who longed to sing but in the end could only talk.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times
Downey more or less vanished as quickly as he'd appeared. And yet, as anyone with a television knows, his legacy lives on.
John Anderson-Newsday
[A] punchy, enjoyably slanted chronicle of the troubled man, his times and his mission ...
Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News
As fair a portrayal the weak-chinned warrior will get - and fairer than he deserves.
-Los Angeles Times
Ironically for a movie about the ratings value of shock, Évocateur suffers from its own lack of red meat.
Ben Kenigsberg-AV Club
This was Morton Downey Jr., and Evocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie is probably the film he deserves.
Gabe Toro-The Playlist
A riveting biopic about a rich kid-turned-rabid bully and pathological liar desperate enough for the limelight to sell his soul to the devil.

Movie Overview For Évocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie
Long before O'Reilly and Beck, Morton Downey, Jr., was tearing up the talk-show format with his divisive populism. Between the fistfights, rabid audience, and Mort's cigarette smoke always "in your face," The Morton Downey Jr. Show was billed as "3-D television," "rock and roll without the music." Évocateur meditates on the hysteria that ended the '80s and ultimately its most notorious agitator.TagLine Évocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie
