American Dream?
Does anyone think that Sacha Baron Cohen attempts to depict the American Dream as an allegory to the power exerted by the American government in order to control it's citizens? That in order to live a happy life with wealth and positive attention, individuals must follow the rules and present themselves in a certain way, even if it disregards their true thoughts and feelings. For Example when Bruno tries to become straight, calling on the names of 'straight' movie stars Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Kevin Spacey who have had media portrayal of being homosexual.
