Borat Sagdiyev

Borat Sagdiyev ...

... is a satirical Kazakhstani journalist caricature invented and portrayed by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. Borat evolved from a previous character that Baron Cohen portrayed, an Albanian TV reporter called Kristo, and was also possibly influenced by Internet celebrity Mahir Cagri or a Russian doctor Baron Cohen once met.

He appeared regularly on Da Ali G Show, with skits featuring him often relying on Borat's outrageous behavior and actions, and the reactions of uninformed individuals around him. In some cases, Borat's guests embrace his outrageous anti-Semitism and misogyny by agreeing with him, while other guests attempt to explain Western values to him.

Borat is shown in each episode of Da Ali G Show, doing satirical interviews with various people who apparently do not realize the show's nature. He has visited Britain and the United States.

The character's supposed Kazakh origins are purely a plot device, and almost all of his statements about that nation are false. The almost complete lack of knowledge about Kazakhstan and its culture among typical Westerners gives Borat's character license to do whatever he wants; the people Borat interacts with are often extremely afraid of offending him by being intolerant of what they perceive to be cultural differences.

 'Bruno' is no 'Borat' (Los Angeles Times)

Universal will put Sacha Baron Cohen's comedy in wide release, an advantage Fox didn't have in introducing 'Borat' to Americans. Sacha Baron Cohen's latest fictional character hails from a different foreign land, wears different clothes, and tells different jokes. But the closer you examine Universal's marketing campaign for Baron Cohen's ?Brüno,? the more the sales pitch starts to look a little ...

Sydney (Jun 30, 2009) -- British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen's new character has a thing for Australia's wonkish prime minister. Baron Cohen, once better known as the clueless Kazakh journalist Borat, is now in a new guise as a gay Australian fashionista, Bruno. In Sydney for the Australian premiere of his new movie, Baron Cohen appeared at a news conference yesterday in a tight-fitting schoolboy ...

We all knew Borat. Borat was a friend of ours. Bruno, you're no Borat.

The problem with "Bruno" is Bruno himself. Compared to Borat - and it's impossible to avoid the comparison - there simply isn't enough to the character to build an entire feature-length film around him.

LOS ANGELES, June 29 ? We all knew Borat. Borat was a friend of ours. Bruno, you?re no Borat. Unfair to be sure, but because everyone is going to compare Sacha Baron Cohen?s ?Bruno? to his insanely funny ?Borat,? let?s be honest: While pushing the PC envelope in new and imaginative ways as well as the MPAA?s R rating, especially insofar as the male member is concerned, ?Bruno? is only ...
