Question about the Borat movie...
I've been out of the loop, although I know the basic backstory of Sacha Baron Coen's Borat character and Ali G. and all that.

But I just got around to watching the trailer for the Borat movie. Is everything or most everything in that real? As in the same way the daily show interviews are real and with real people who either don't know they are being set up or don't particularly care that they are being set up? Or is it all actors and scripted?

2. The segments from the show were real, can't speak for the movie
I imagine it'd be the same. :shrug:

3. typically i think they set the people up
at least that's the way it looks when you watch da ali g show on hbo.

i hope the movie follows the intent of those segments.

the rodeo scene in the upcoming movie is supposedly real: security had to escort them out of the place.

4. Yeah, it's all real...
at least according to the movie's press kit.
