Sacha Baron Cohen follows up his outrageous PC-busting mockumentary Borat… with this outrageous PC-busting mockumentary about a disgraced gay Austrian fashion journalist seeking fame and fortune in the US of A. Following a disastrous incident involving a Velcro jump suit at Milan Fashion Week, Brüno is fired from his TV show Funkyzeit mit Brüno, turns his back on fashion, and heads off to America, hoping to become more famous than Hitler (though for different reasons, naturally). Once Stateside, his in-your-face uber-campness and total lack of self-awareness proceeds to shock, horrify and infuriate everyone he encounters – from a TV chat show audience via various homophobic bigots to a Texan Congressman. And, not willing to stop there, Brüno decides to jet off to the Middle East to solve the Arab/ Israeli conflict – to the utter horror of both parties. Opinions are divided over whether Brüno is out to expose the idiocy of homophobia, or whether he’s simply using it for laughs. However, there is consensus that this is a very, very funny film, albeit one not for the faint-hearted. Directed by Larry Charles.
