crowd at theater

MySpacers crowded into the AMC Metreon theater in San Francisco to catch a sneak preview of "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan," based on a character created by British actor Sacha Baron Cohen. Tickets to the event--one in a series of MySpace Black Carpet film-screening promotions--were available only to those who added Borat as a friend on MySpace, the popular social networking site. Almost 600 turned out for the 10 p.m. showing. The film is scheduled for release on Nov. 3.
