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 candidate for the United States Senate. The main character, Bob Roberts, played by Robbins, leaves his hippie parents to enroll in a military academy. Fueled by a personal fortune he amasses on Wall Street and a strong public image from his music, which proposes a conservative vision in a rebel's persona, he embarks on a bid for the position of Senator from Pennsylvania. The film portrays the U.S. political process in a less-than-favorable light, suggesting that shady deals, hypocrisy and deceit are mainstays of U.S. politics.
Bob Roberts is based on a short segment of the same name and character that Robbins did for the television sketch comedy program Saturday Night Live on December 13, 1986, and is the first film in which Robbins takes on the role of director.

Meta Description: [ It's been a while since I watched Tim Robbins's sublime Bob Roberts, and I forgot how hilarious and pointed it is.
