SBC is a true genius, and people should not be offended by this work of pure genius. He cannot be anti-semitic as he is Jewish himself. He is Hilarious,The Movie is Hilarious. Borat is a MUST see.

This guy/character is just a rehashed, lamer version of Andy Kaufman's "foreign man."

A TV exec would have an orgasm walking into the room: an entire audience 18 to maybe 30. I was the oldest guy there. Movie execs, TV execs, they're going to throw money at this guy. They're going to ship it to him by the tanker load.

But beyond just funny bits, Borat/Cohen gives the movie a story arc, and a heart, and even has the sense to end it before he's worn out his welcome. What a smart piece of work. Brilliant. And knowing something about the filming of documentaries (loosely defined in this case) I want to send kudos to the producers -- they worked their asses off on this thing.
