Sacha Baron Cohen and his films "Once when I was high, I sold cars like 24 Chicken McNuggets."
- Sacha Baron Cohen
A new age of comedy has arrived. And it opens with the domination of a new breed of actors, led by Sacha Baron Cohen. Their brand of comedy is characterized a mesh of reality TV, comedy, stand-up, the guerrilla journalism, and a pioneering attempt to inject themes not usually laughed. The success of Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan has strengthened its presence in America. In fact, America and the rest of the world first allowed themselves to be jokes Sacha. And it is still not satisfied.
Sacha Baron Cohen was raised by a wealthy Jewish family in England. He was educated in exclusive schools and eventually ended up at Christ College at Cambridge University history repeating. His acting skills showed promise, he joined the Amateur Dramatic Club of the University. He was able to play classic roles such as Guy Fawkes or Tevye. This mixture of interests that adds a layer of complexity to the three main characters of Sacha Baron Cohen turns regularly.

The guests unwittingly become part of the act to very funny.
Bruno is an Austrian fashion reporter who happens to be gay. Bruno often tricks his interviewees to contradict itself by allowing them to answer yes or no questions in a very ambiguous. Sometimes, the alter ego makes the subjects of sentences total connections with the Second World War or perhaps anti-Semitism (recall that the Baron is a Jew). Bruno has been made to highlight the apathy or indifference in the world of fashion to some questions today and in the past. There are already plans to send Bruno on the big screen as Borat.
Borat is a Kazakh anti-Semitic. In the film, it uses anti-Semitic themes to hilarious results. A scene, he asks a guy who sells firearms if a particular gun could kill a Jew, in which the guy responds after a few seconds of deep thought, yes. The film opened at # 1 in charts behind films such as Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.
According to Baron Cohen said that anti-Semitic Borat is a demonstration of the dramatic ways in which racism feeds on dumb conformity, as much as rabid bigotry. "
Sacha brand of comedy exposes the truths of the modern can only accept the comedy. An old tool designed by the Greek theater to laugh at some truths. Another thing, and Baron Cohen could simply be dismissed. If you listen between the lines, you can sometimes find it difficult to laugh. Since when you laugh, Sacha or his alter ego can make fun of you.
