56. A Face in the Crowd

Mayberry GOP. This was the movie Bob Roberts (Tim Robbins) was patterned after. Tim and his brother David wrote a brilliant soundtrack: "Drugs Stink", "Be a clean living man with a rope in your hand", "The Times They are a Changin'...Back" that they never released commercially as a CD or LP because they thought the right wingnuts would take the parody seriously.
