Sacha Baron Cohen article

Article

Summary
Billionaire business man Cecil Chao offered a 65 million dollar (£40m) dowry to any man who can marry his lesbian daughter. He was being really serious. However Sacha Baron Cohen decided to use this as a inspiration for his next venture it will be backed up by Hollywood studio Paramount. Sacha will produce through his four by two films banner.

My opinion
it really shows as to how homosexuality is portrayed in these 2 different places and cultures. As in places such as America and England this idea of Cecil paying a man to get married to his daughter is silly in our view, as homosexuality is seen not mostly but by some people as okay, as we also find it humorous as to "Hollywood" and paramount a huge institution's backing up the idea. However whereas in Honk Kong which is a more conservative place has a total different view on it.

  1. Summary
    The article in which Ria has chosen is about Sacha Baron Cohen making a film with paramount replicating the story of Cecil Chao and business man who try to get his lesbian daughter married of to any man
    My opinion
    The film shows that how people don’t understand homosexual as people don’t seem it is okay to have civil partnerships as a women marrying women is wrong as it shown by people like Ellen DeGeneres who is married a women and is successful.
