Man Of The Year - Preview & competition
Preview by Jack Foley
WHAT would happen if a popular late night talk show host ran for President of the United States and won? Learn the hilarious answer when Man of the Year comes to DVD on April 28, 2007 from Universal Pictures UK.
In Man of the Year, popular talk show host Tom Dobbs (Robin Williams) speaks the mind of an exasperated nation, aiming nightly zingers at politicians and their cronies.
When Dobbs makes a joke about running for president, a grassroots movement sweeps him onto the ballot. Soon Dobbs is skewering his opponents and winning huge laughs – but even he never dreamed that he would win the election!
Hilarity ensues as Dobbs learns a computing error gave him victory, and as the inaugural clock ticks, he must decide whether he should return to his late night time slot or stay in the Oval Office.
Written and directed by Academy Award® winner Barry Levinson (Rain Man, Good Morning Vietnam) and featuring Academy Award® winner Robin Williams (Good Morning Vietnam, RV), Man of the Year boasts an all-star cast, including Academy Award® winner Christopher Walken (Wedding Crashers), Academy Award® nominee Laura Linney (Love Actually), Jeff Goldblum (Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou) and Lewis Black (The Daily Show).
A must-see for all Robin Williams fans, Man of the Year, a Morgan Creek production, delivers an original straight-from-the-headlines comedy about politics that are anything but usual.
