How Sacha Baron Cohen Got Away With It

So while watching Borat or reading up on Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest film, Bruno, the main questions probably running through your head are “how does he get away with it?” and “how is he able to trick people into speaking with him?” Well, my friends, here’s how clever this bitch is it.
While taping Borat, he was able to get away with more because not many people knew who he was so obviously when he went to film Bruno, he had to think of a way to get the same effect.
He decided to hire a crack team of lawyers and then created a bunch of fake production companies to help lure in Nazis and white supremacists into telling all on the camera. Production company names like Chronium Films, Cold Stream Productions, and Coral Blue Productions were created and linked back to the same phone number and address. Of course when this was found it, many of these “companies” were shut down, and although this might piss off many of the interviewees realizing they were taken for a ride, it’s not Cohen’s fault that they fell for his trickery. Can’t wait to see this douchebags interviewing on the big screen.
