Borat: What's real and what's not.

If you have watched Borat and liked it, you have to check out this Salon.com article:

I'm so relieved that the 3 frat boys were from University of South Carolina, the other USC, not University of Southern California. Whew.

When Stein told Borat that women in America can do anything men can, be president, secretary of state ("Oh, like that chocolate lady?" Borat replied) or even a reporter, Borat argued, "No. I can lift a chair!" At which point he stood up and lifted a chair. Not to be outdone, Stein lifted a chair as well. "I can lift two chairs," Borat countered, lifting two chairs. Stein did the same. And she now takes exception to the omission of this scene from the film. "He didn't choose the segments that really make the point that women are equal and strong. He didn't make the point with sexism that perhaps he did with anti-Semitism and homophobia."
:f16:

I can't bellieve one of the segments (car buying scenario) was shot in Gaithersburg, Maryland!!! [/code]
