Borat 2’s marvelous babysitter thinks Maria Bakalova should get an Oscar nomination October 29, 2020
A certain amount of skepticism and ambiguity is to be expected with a Sacha Baron Cohen project. What’s real? What’s not? How much did those involved know? What did they suspect? What were they told?
