Freaks (1932)
A bizarre movie and one of those you’ll want to see for film historical purposes. If you do watch it stick with it till the very end or you’ll certainly miss the experience. A story about unusual people exploited for their uniqueness in a circus but only to a point. Thought to be the only mistake of the great Irving Thalberg’s career he was its uncredited producer. Directed by Tod Browning (Dracula (1931)) and scripted by Willis Goldbeck Leon Gordon Al Boasberg and Edgar Allan Woolf. Besides the titled characters this horror drama features Wallace Ford Leila Hyams Olga Baclanova Roscoe Ates and Henry Victor (among others). Added to the National Film Registry in 1994.
