Bob Roberts

Bob Roberts is a 1992 film directed and written by Tim Robbins. It is a satirical faux-documentary on the rise of a right-wing senatorial candidate. The main character, Bob Roberts, played by Tim Robbins, leaves his hippie parents to enlist in a military academy. Fuelled by a personal fortune he amasses on Wall Street, and a strong public image from his music, which proposes a neoconservative vision in a rebel's persona, he embarks on a bid for the position of senator of Pennsylvania. The film aims to portray the American political process in a less than favorable light, indicating that shady deals, hypocrisy and deceit are the domain of the United States Republican Party. Robbins' personal detestment of the Republican Party is blatantly transparent. Tim Robbins also wrote a song as "Bob Roberts" for the 1988 movie Tapeheads.
