A very well written article by Joe Mirabella, who is gay and supports Bruno, points out the important issues that are brought to light by the movie.
And finally, GLAAD is ignoring the amazing conversations that Bruno created. The water cooler discussions are not jokes about gay parents as GLAAD said it would be, but rather a discussion of the violence Bruno experienced at the end of the film during the cage fight. People are talking about the Christian trying to “cure” Bruno of his homosexuality. People are talking about celebrity and the desperate lengths people will go to achieve it. People are talking about Paula Abdule sitting on the back of a Mexican.
Obviously Joe is not the only gay supporter for Bruno. It is just that he’s much more well written and vocal about movie. Enjoy the article to get different views of a controversial movie that has potential to attain cult status.

In the box office that is. Harry Potter took a commanding box office lead while Bruno went flaccid in the second week dropping to $8.4 million. Who are we to judge when Harry Potter knows how to work his wand better than Bruno with his.

Barbara Walters reviews Bruno through the eyes of a nine year who don’t understand the puns behind pussycats, roosters and cocktails. In the process, she manages to make a fool of herself by snubbing everyone as little people. The reactions by her co-hosts are priceless, it is on the level of Mike Meyers’ reaction when Kanye West said that Bush did not care about black people on a live telethon to raise money for Katrina victims.
Who would have guessed that Barbara is in cahoots with the Alabama dinner folks who were duped by Borat the first time? Does she know that calling working class Americans “little people” ranks up there with slave owners and being racially intolerant.
One more thing Barbara, this movie is rated R. If you are a parent and made the choice to bring your 12 year old to see it, then you already know what to expect unless you are one of the little people that caters to Barbara.
“I don’t like making fun of little people.” – Barbara Walters
Joy Behar sums up Barbara’s review best. “So if you don’t know the difference, there’s something wrong with you.”
For a while, America was one of the most religious and conservative countries in the world. That new title might belong to the Ukraine now for banning Bruno because the so called Expert Commission on File Distribution simply did not understand the film and imposed a moral censorship.
This ban is in sync with the Ukraine’s recent moral crusade to save all Ukrainian souls from hell, gays, social tolerances, and South Park. Honestly, citizens of the world can make their own choices unless you happen to live in North Korea and the Ukraine.

Bruno reveals how he becomes gay and the major events in his life that turned him to walk on the brown side. The interview is pretty much uncensored, and Howard Stern does a great job with the questions and keeping the flow of the program at a good pace without any dull moments.
This is definitely one of Bruno’s better interviews which allowed him to be in full character rather than worrying about offending the host or listeners. The full interview consist of 3 parts (totaling approximately 30 minutes).
At one point, even Bruno was shocked by Howard Stern and his shenanigans.
