Directed by Patrick Stettner
(“The Business of
Strangers”), THE NIGHT LISTENER is a psychological thriller based on
the
international bestselling novel by Armistead Maupin. The story revolves around a
celebrated writer and popular
late-night radio show host, Gabriel Noone (Robin Williams), who
develops an
intense phone relationship with a young listener named Pete (Rory
Culkin) and
his adopted mother (Toni Collette) just as his own domestic life is
undergoing
drastic changes. When troubling questions arise regarding the boy's
identity,
it causes Gabriel's ordered existence to spin wildly out of control as
he sets
out on a harrowing journey to find the truth.
The
film also stars Sandra Oh (“Sideways” and “Grey’s Anatomy”) and Bobby
Cannavale
(“The Station Agent” and “Will & Grace”), and is produced by Robert
Kessel,
Jeffrey Sharp, John Hart and Jill Footlick.
