Jeanise Jones seems like a genuinely good person and she had every opportunity to be shitty and she never was. Why even risk making her look a fool?SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-48223085752894445502022-02-18T09:06:50.076-06:002022-02-18T09:06:50.076-06:00If Borat had done this on his own, it would not ha...If Borat had done this on his own, it would not have worked. Almost every stunt he does on his own fails or, yeah, is "cringy" in a bad way. Maria Bakalova on the other hand was a star. Phenomenal, even. <br />I actually liked the part with Jeanise Jones. She is scammed yes, but provoked into being the heart of the movie. She is standing up to say that these things are wrong and outrageous. She is set up to do the right thing where everybody else are set up to do the wrong thing and it worked for me. It is my impression he wanted to do the same thing for the old ladies in the synagogue, but that did not turn out well at all.

But I really struggle with the nature of embarrassment as entertainment, so I struggled with this.<br /><br />I avoided talking about Giuliani above because fuck that guy.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-5991919807239850232022-02-18T00:14:18.562-06:002022-02-18T00:14:18.562-06:00I actually liked the film and thought it was funny...I actually liked the film and thought it was funny. Especially because of Maria Bakalova as she just stole the film from everyone. I was really uncomfortable with the presence of Rudy Giuliani as he just came off even worse in that film than everyone else. The fact that he had no problem wanting to have sex with a reporter who claimed to be 15 is just revolting. I hope he goes to prison one of these days and gets spit-roasted over there.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.com
