Film Review Selection.
The film I choose to review is "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan"The reason I choose this film is not only for its comedic value or that its an amazing piece of political satire but also of how its an honest portrayal of how an American person would react to a person of this character. Its a social experiment gone deranged and many times too far. Many of the scenes included are crude, sexual and filled with language and are yes, very real. Sacha Boran Cohen portrays an ignorant, racist, and sexist Kazakhstan news reporter. He attempts to use American stereotypes of middle eastern culture in real time against them. Many of the scenes are staged but many were improvised at the scene depending on the situation.

I seriously appreciate your choice of this film. The way you acknowledge the crude behaviors throughout but yet are analyzing how they affect the viewers is very mature.
