Well, that’s just great: Everyone is talking about Borat again. When the surprise sequel to the 2006 hit movie was announced last month, it seemed reasonable to wonder whether Borat Subsequent Moviefilm would possibly command even a fraction of the audience the first one did. So much time has passed, so many of its lines have had the humor suffocated out of them by being incessantly quoted by its legion of fans. But now, thanks to a climactic scene that was covered to death Wednesday, the day the movie’s review embargo lifted, former New York mayor and President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani is the new “This is my wife.” (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm will be released on Amazon this Friday.)
In disguise, Borat interrupts the interview and once Tutar clears him from the room, she touches Giuliani’s leg again to apologize. “Shall we have a drink in the bedroom?” she asks him. He agrees. In the bedroom, they help each other remove their mics; his apparently requires her to pull up his shirt. He sits on the bed, and asks her for her phone number and address andthe small of her back. He leans back on the bed and puts his hands in his pants.
None of this is nearly as damning as Baron Cohen and director Jason Woliner apparently want it to be. Giuliani leaped into a set trap with perhaps more gusto than your average public figure, but he was lured there quite consciously for the express purpose of embarrassing him.
I think part of the movie shows the absurdity of holding any form of racial prejudice, whether it’s hatred of African-Americans or of Jews.” This all holds true, though there’s clearly some fun that is supposed to be had with Borat’s accent and general backwardness as a foreigner, most blatantly evidenced in scenes that only occur between him and his daughter and don’t involve coercing unsuspecting subjects to let down their guards.
