Bruno Hails Hitler

Why has the Bruno Movie gotten Austria with its panties in a bunch? Bruno downplays the atrocities of Austria’s own Hitler as a mere black sheep who wrote a fashion bible. He also spins punchlines around the horrific crimes of Josef Fritzl who kept “his own daughter in a dungeon for 26 years and fathering her seven children”.

Honestly, we would know less about Aldof Hitler and Josef Fritzl if Bruno did not bring these two figures to the very front of our subconscious. Thanks to Bruno’s comedy and dark sarcastic messages, we are granted the curiosity to dive deep into finding out who these monsters really are. His social commentary is relevant in that it questions everyone if they have forgotten about the unimaginable history behind war crimes, incestuous taboos, and the struggles for basic fundamental human rights.

No. Bruno does not hail Hitler. He marches to his own drummer.

Bruno Movie has Austria Worried

Sacha Baron Cohen is taking on the reputation of another country again. Only this time it is in his Bruno character representing Austria where last time was Borat upsetting Kazakhstan.

Austria officials are worried that Bruno’s outlandishly gay personality will be a threat to the country’s world image – and economy. – UK Telegraph Article

If only Bruno was American, then we can blame him for the US economy turmoils too.
