I had on CNN headline news the other day and caught the end of a Borat story, and at the end of the clip he was in the green swimsuit and had to hold his crotch when he got up and adjusted the thong in the back. When they cut back to the female newscaster, she was shaking her head in shock, mouth wide open. :rotfl:

It looks like Russia has banned the film.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6130918.stm
Quote:
A senior official at Russia's culture ministry has told the BBC it will not provide a distribution licence.
And the article concludes with:
Quote:
A culture ministry official in Moscow told the BBC it had refused to issue a distribution licence because the film could potentially humiliate different ethnic groups and religions.

The official would not give any further details, except to say the distributors had the right to appeal against the government's decision.
What a sorry state of affairs.

I can understand why the russians wont want that movie around as it does take the piss out of thier way of life and the russians dont exactly want riots in the streets.

Dont forget the country setting is a place of the former USSR

There were some disturbing moments in this film, but it was very good nonetheless!

Seriously, I think the Russians are a little excited about the ban. Because now their hyper-efficient movie pirate industry is going to tout it as the greatest hit from the US&A. I trust every Russian with a DVD player will have seen this by the end of the year. :hmm:

The only people it takes the piss out of are the people he interviews.
