Sacha Baron Cohen in BRÜNO Trailer



Sacha Baron Cohen in Bruno

Written by Sacha Baron Cohen and directed by Dan Mazer, Brüno stars Cohen as a flamboyant Austrian fashionista who, in his desire to become "the biggest Austrian celebrity since Hitler," decides to launch himself in the United States, adopting an African baby (à la Madonna) in the process while trying to pass for straight.

As a result of several sex scenes, Brüno has been slapped with a NC-17 rating in the US. I don't believe anyone was surprised. Its distributor, Universal, will now have to trim the sex bits in order to get the mockumentary an R rating. Apparently, one sequence involves anal intercourse, the sort of stuff that drives the MPAA censors wild. That and the other soon-to-be-cut moments will most likely be included in the DVD release.

Note: The above trailer is restricted.

Brüno opens in the US on July 10.

    his satire is so concentrated, it hurts. I cannot wait to see Brüno, which will most definitely upset and piss me off.
