L'uomo dell'anno (2006)
L'anchorman televisivo Tom Dobbs (Robin Williams), subissato da e-mail esultanti al momento di minacciare una candidatura alla presidenza degli Stati Uniti, decide di partecipare alla corsa alla Casa Bianca. Con un entourage capeggiato dal manager Jack Menken (Cristopher Walken), il suo cammino trionfale si scontra con la realtà e con un' irreale onestà. Le vicende romanzate sull'uomo più importante del mondo, il Presidente degli Stati Uniti, sono state spesso oggetto di sceneggiature cinematografiche e televisive. Da Un presidente - Una storia d'amore alla serie tv West Wing, che vedeva rispettivamente nel ruolo del protagonista Michael Douglas e Martin Sheen. In questa sorta di demistificazione della televisione che si impossessa del cinema (Tom Dobbs è un comedian del piccolo schermo che è parte di un film pensato per le sale), Robin Williams si muove alla perfezione nella prima ora, manifestando naturalezza e solo attimi caricaturali tipici della sua natura.
