Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Oliver Stone's
Talk Radio (1988), starring Eric Bogosian, Ellen Greene, Leslie Hope, John C. McGinley, and Alec Baldwin. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on May 19.
Description: Academy AwardŽ-winning writer/director Oliver Stone (JFK) brings shock radio to the screen in this relentlessly fast-paced suspense thriller. Dallas talk radio host Barry Champlain (Eric Bogosian, Uncut Gems) discovers one weekend that his skills in pushing people's buttons have won him a chance for national syndication. But instead of celebrating, he subjects his ex-wife (Ellen Greene, Little Shop of Horrors) to a darkly comic marathon bout of compulsive risk-taking with his unstable radio audience. Barry and his "fans" - the lonely, the angry and the dangerous - know that talk is not cheap, and that words can kill.
