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. (c) Magnolia

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." Ã‰vocateur meditates on the hysteria that ended the '80s and ultimately its most notorious agitator.

Review For Évocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie

This sharp documentary tribute to Downey's bug-eyed, fulminating charisma - he was like a Nixon who'd let out his id - reveals the demons that drove him to fame, then dragged him down.
Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly

The film does an excellent job of showing how hate-TV was molded in the image of snarling, chain-smoking, guest-berating Downey.
Rob Nelson-Minneapolis Star Tribune

Assorted celebrities and Downey's producers offer some insights, but the movie dwells too long on a group of worshipful former audience members.
Andrea Gronvall-Chicago Reader

Évocateur is never less than watchable. At the same time, you have to wonder who's going to watch it.
James Adams-Globe and Mail

The movie, made by three former teenage fans of the show, is an odd mixture of admiration and repulsion; even his friends and former producers, interviewed for the camera, seemed mixed in their feelings for him.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times

Friends and former colleagues address the lingering question of whether Downey was being sincere or engaging in an elaborate form of performance art. (The answer: By the end of the show's run, Downey himself could scarcely tell the difference anymore.)
Scott Foundas-Variety

The film argues that Downey's story is at once banal and outrageous, predictable and (sometimes) surprising.
Cynthia Fuchs-PopMatters

Without taking his side, "Evocateur" makes us feel genuinely terrible for him.
Matt Prigge-Metro News

Using archival footage, including what appears to be home movies, a fascinating picture is painted of this obnoxious opportunist who, in his own way, changed the face of television.
Neil Rosen-NY1-TV

Evocateur is an excellent effort that tries to make sense of a complicated person. It's both highly complimentary and critical, the kind of balanced overview Downey rarely gave those who came under this show business spell.
Bill Gibron-EntertainmentTell

Chronicles the clamorous rise and fall of its mouthy subject in an engaging and entertaining fashion that also rather purposefully induces a certain queasiness.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com

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.
Kam Williams-Sly Fox

A true-life horror story featuring a lead more monstrous than any mere vampire or werewolf.
David Noh-Film Journal International
