Borat

Release date: March 6, 2007

The Pitch:

A Kazakh TV talking head is sent to the United States and creates a culture clash of epic proportions.

Why You Need It:

Or, rather, Borat: Cultural Learnings of America to Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. Audiences everywhere made sexy-time excitement over the politically incorrect mockumentary antics of Borat Sagdiyev, the Kazakhstani TV celebrity sent to the "U.S. and A." to research American customs on behalf of his home country. As he zigzags across the nation, Borat meets real people in real situations with hysterical consequences. His backwards behavior generates strong reactions around him (to say the least), exposing prejudices and hypocrisies in American culture (again, to say the least). You'll laugh, cringe and squirm - a lot.

Talent:

Larry Charles (director), Sacha Baron Cohen, Ken Davitian, Luenell, Pamela Anderson, Bob Barr, Mitchell Falk, Alan Keyes.
