Movie outside of class - Borat


Borat is hands down my most favorite movie of all time. I could talk endlessly about it but I will get to the point. The director was fa-nominal in the way he made this movie. He took the different classes of america and really expressed how they are viewed and how they view others. Being a foreigner myself I felt really close to the main character because,that is how I felt when I moved to america in a way. The director did a fantastic job with relating to stereotypes and the views from others. Borat was a reporter from Kazakhstan that took his best friend with him to make a documentary about living in america. He met all type of different races such as ghetto blacks, Rich whites, and Rednecks from a foreign perspective. The gaze in this was amazing because Americans got to witness the average feel for how it is to be a foreigner in a different country. We got to witness America through Borats eyes and feel/see what he was going through. The sound in this movie was also very sharp and detailed throughout. Borat encounters a bear throughout his journey and takes it for a ride in his ice cream truck, and when the bear roared it scarred away all the children wanting some ice cream.   This movie is hilarious and i highly recommend this to anyone who hasn't seen it because it is truly a masterpiece. This movie shows that you shouldn't judge someone on their outside but for the person they are on the inside.
