I’ve never seen the appeal of these Sacha Baron Cohen films, Borat and Bruno, just a whole bunch of sleaze and don’t understand how can such sleaze be considered funny. But that’s my taste.
Anyway I feel bad for this guy, it’s ruined his reputation as he is featured in a disgusting film with graphic sex scenes and nudity and apparently he was standing for an election in Bethlehem. I hope he does get a million dollar compensation because he deserves it.
Sadly a similar thing happened previously whilst filming for the Borat film. The impoverished villagers of Glod, in Romania were humilated and portrayed as incests and vulgar people and they were lied to by the production team that it was for a documentary.
