Sacha Baron Cohen’s “Bruno” Movie Trailer Is Going to Make You Laugh
“Brüno” is the follow up mockumentary comedy film to “Borat” by brilliant comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. It is produced by, co-written by, and stars Baron Cohen. The character “Bruno” originates from Cohen’s previous HBO series, “Da Ali G Show”. This film is the third based on characters from the show, following “Ali G Indahouse” and “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan”, but the latter and this film occurs in real-life situations unlike the “Ali G Indahouse”.
In the film, which opens on July 10, British comic Cohen plays a gay Austrian TV presenter called Bruno. The movie is facing an adults only certification in the US due to the sexually explicit material. Some scenes might have to be cut so Bruno can be seen by a wider audience. According to early reviews, part of the plot involves Bruno drawing inspiration from people like George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie to, as he says, find a “new shithole to save”..and…”Clooney has Darfur, I need to find my Darfur…”.
In his quest to become a big time celebrity, Bruno feels that the only way he can accomplish this is by giving back. He even flies to the Middle East to negotiate peace between Israel and Palestine by telling them “Why are you all so mad at Hamas, Pita bread is the real enemy, yes?”. The best part? Apparently there’s a giant charity song at the end of the movie featuring Bono, Coldplay, Elton John and Snoop Dogg. Any other movie and I’d call bullshit — but this is Sacha Baron Cohen, so expect it. Can’t wait. I also hear “Bruno” attends a “Yes on 8″ rally in California (see the picture below), that should be very interesting to watch also! This is my most highly anticipated film to watch in 2009, hands down!
