Bruno Interviews Pete Rose in Unseen Blu-ray Extra by Troy Rogers
What has all time Major League hitting champ, Pete Rose, been doing these days? As fans of Sacha Baron Cohen and Bruno get ready for Bruno to hit the runways of DVD and Blu-ray on November 17, we were sent a hilarious Blu-ray special feature of Bruno sitting down for a chat with baseball great Pete Rose. And when we say "sitting", it's not like when Pete Rose used to sit in the dugout for The Big Red Machine.
The Bruno - Pete Rose clip wasn't seen in theaters and is only available on the DVD and Blu-ray, which also features an hour of other scenes not included in the theatrical Bruno release. Similar to the comedic format of Borat, Bruno offers Pete Rose an unorthodox seating arrangement for their interview where Rose doesn't seem to have a problem until the snacks arrive.
Awesome!
OVERVIEW: The inimitable prankster Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan) launches another inspired comedy offensive in the boisterous Brüno, coming to Blu-Ray Hi-Def and DVD on November 17, 2009 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
As in the hugely popular Borat, Sacha Baron Cohen once again creates improvised pandemonium, this time as an Austrian TV host searching for fame and fortune in America, ensnaring everyone he meets in hilariously unpredictable, unscripted and unsuspecting ways.
Featuring an hour of exclusive footage of deleted scenes not shown in theaters and a revealing commentary by Sasha Baron Cohen & director Larry Charles about how some of the film’s unbelievably funny pranks were achieved, Brüno has been hailed even "Funnier than Borat" by Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly and "Uber-hilarity!" by Claudia Puig, USA Today. Hilarious, irreverent, shocking and entertaining, Brüno is the most talked-about comedy of the year.

SYNOPSIS: Sacha Baron Cohen (the creator and star of Borat) returns to the big screen in the hilarious adventures of Austria’s favorite fashionista, Brüno. In this gleefully anarchic mockumentary, the flamboyant television host loses his homeland talk show, "Funkyzeit," and does what any self-respecting wannabe would do-he moves to Hollywood to pursue worldwide super-stardom. From worlds of fashion and entertainment to the military, Brüno puts his worst foot forward as Baron Cohen fearlessly tramples the boundaries of good taste in ways that confound celebrities and just plain folks alike. Fans of Baron Cohen’s gonzo comedy can look forward to an hour’s worth of hysterical scenes not shown in theaters on both the DVD and Blu-ray versions.
