Bruno returns to Fort Smith

A heads-up from Brummett: Sacha Baron Cohen's new movie, "Bruno," opens Friday, including in Fort Smith. There (and also in Texarkana) the comedian lured spectators into a beer-soaked wrestling match that turned into a homo-erotic exhibition designed (successfully) to enrage spectators.

Consider yourself warned. Our Rock Candy blog recounted some of the craziness yesterday and included a Letterman clip.

Dracula can't stop biting necks and Ed Bethune can't stop debasing Arkansas politics. Persistence is but one of the traits they share. /more/
