Bruno Trailer Is Here (If You're Over 17)

| Thu Apr. 2, 2009 5:17 PM PDT
I've been covering Sacha Baron Cohen's follow-up to Borat for a while now, from reports that his Austrian fashionista character Bruno was terrorizing midwesterners to unconfirmed but overwhelmingly positive early reviews of the film. But now, via HuffPo, we have something real: the actual, official trailer for the actual, official movie, which you can watch above. Needless to say, it is Not Safe For Work, and you have to enter your age to even make it play—the film was given a preliminary rating of NC-17, because, you know, references to gay sexuality are way worse than elaborate torture. Don't get me started. Anyway, the preview is perhaps even more raucous than one could have imagined, with practically every scene a jaw-dropping, and potentially dangerous, act of queer trickery. I'd say Baron Cohen should get a MacArthur genius grant, but I'm sure he's going to make a zillion dollars anyway. Bruno is out July 10.

Ha ha ! :D I love it. I suspect mainstream USA might find this Ozzie a bit hard to take. Nothing is sacred; just the way it should be. Good on ya mate, she's a little ripper !

Sasha's great, but

I'm goin' down on my knees and pray that all those wanna-be jackasses out there don't try to imitate him. "You signed the papers. You wanted to be here!" -Drill Sgt. Leach, 1971
