We’ve blogged about Borat a number of times here. I think Neil has a particular fascination with the rude would-be Kazakhstani (actually a Jewish fellow named Sascha Baron Cohen). I’ve yet to see “Borat” the film, but am actually looking forward to it. There’s been so much fuss from the Kazakhs about it, the publicity has just kind of been self-fulfilling, as these things tend to be. But it seems to me in the promos I’ve seen that Cohen’s Borat is less a send up of the former Soviet Republic than it is of Americans. I could be wrong, but leading a bunch of cowboys in singing Throw the Jew Down the Well seems to me more a mockery of us than them. No matter. I’m eager to catch the new film, and when I do, I’ll try to post a review. In the meantime, you should check out the interview with Borat on CNN. He does his best to insult the journalist and make deliciously off-color remarks and suggestions. Dowright good Friday Funny viewing.
