Perry Mason: The Case of the Telltale Talk Show Host (1993)
Plot slowly twists
24 October 2022 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
This TV movie about a fictional talk radio station owner's murder has location shots in Denver. (It is not about the assassination of radio host Alan Berg there by the Aryan Brotherhood in 1984).
Filmed in 1992,
the cast includes some notable names from the decade.
The facial expressions Mason directs toward G. Gordon Liddy are priceless. Better yet,
Liddy stoically inhabits his own political/media personality with dialogue and body language- the original right-wing firebrand.
Also interesting to see Mariett Hartley and Montel Williams cast early on in their careers.
Burr delivers some astute subpoena-serving and courtroom dialogue, even if plot credulity is a stretch.
