Caught Borat (and Happy Feet) today with blu_frenchfries at Eastwood. Suffice it to say that 95% of the audience for Borat were male, and 95% of the audience for Happy Feet was female.

Don't worry, there are no spoilers for Borat - because even if I told you what happens in the movie, there's no way it can possibly ruin the experience of WATCHING it.  I'm amazed the MTRCB allowed the whole thing to be shown without any cuts.

The audience was probably laughing 90% of the time, and there was one scene involving a fight over a Baywatch scrapbook that had people howling (or cringing).  Other favorite scenes are the fat Southern prostitute and the stupid Pentecostals.  Most Americans are bad enough, but putting evangelical Christianity in the mix brings them to the next level of unbelievable idiocy.

Unfortunately, since the "mockumentary" was made under not exactly straightforward premises, some of those involved in the movie are beginning to sue the film studio, including the frat boys who thought America would be better if the could have "slaves," the Southern dinner hostess who had to teach Borat how to use the toilet bowl after he brought shit in a bag to the supper table, and even the Romanian villagers who played his mom and other people in his hometown.r my red
