MarketingVOX: British comic Sacha Baron Cohen’s movie satire about an anti-semitic Kazakh reporter will screen exclusively for MySpace members next Wednesday, writes Reuters.
The debut of the movie, “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan,” marks the international launch of MySpace’s Black Carpet screening series, which debuted in the U.S. on Wednesday with previews of Paramount Pictures’ Jackass: Number Two.
20th Century Fox, a News Corp.-owned sibling of MySpace, has set a Nov. 3 U.S. release date for the film.
Borat’s MySpace page offers a hint of what to expect.
