Bob Roberts

Saw this film year’s ago, way before I understood the dangers of the right wing. Was funny then… comes off as scary and funny now. Love Tim Robbins and his take on American political culture. So many current actors show up in this one that it’s almost like looking at an old yearbook. David Straithairn, Bob Balaban, Alan Rickman, James Spader, John Cusack and Jack Black to name a few standouts for me. Brian Murray is fun to watch as he tries to get an honest view of a corrupt campaign.
Favorite moment: Bob tapping his foot while singing in the wheelchair.
