11. My aunt just emailed me the following:
Though I understand that film pushes satire and outrageous commentary
on every aspect of our society, beyond heretofore seen limits for the
genre, I was deeply offended, would not recommend the film to my
friends. What is the end of tastelessness, grossness? I kept
thinking of "A Modest Proposal," and of Groucho Marx whose "humor"
also pushed tastelessness to the limits for his time. Cohen even
resembles Groucho. Maybe that's his message.
