When Borat asks which firearm would be most suited for shooting a Jew, a gun salesman answers with similar assuredness, and points him towards an appropriate weapon. Another American urges Cohen to shave his mustache so that he looks less like “terrorist.” Upon hitching a ride from a caravan full of frat brothers, amid the generic male jostling, one youth takes the chance to gripe to Borat about how minorities are always “on top” in the United States.

Watching them was like watching an aging, agnostic Jew rediscover the power of scripture, and dance with glee as he intones the blessings.Speaking of Jews, highlight number two was a huge surprise.
