The part with the WBC protest...


in which Bruno ends up getting himself accidently hooked to a passing picketer's sign, was that a real life WBC protest, or just actors?

It was real. Listen to the commentary on the film. They are pretty honest about what was real and what was fake.

The local cops told them to stay away from the protesters. Sacha and the director told a story about how the cops were circling the block every 5 minutes or so to make sure they were staying away. Then after one of the passes they rolled up in a van and hopped out in costume and shot that scene very fast, and then had to BOOK it before they got busted.
