Freaks

After researching the 1932 flim Freaks, I was able to learn alittle more about it. I now understand the difference of horror films in the 30's compared to todays films. The director felt it was better to use people with real deformities rather than use costume and make up on "normal people". This I felt was an intresting because the director tryed to portray that beauty is not always what your see on the outside; its on the inside that counts. So even though the "freaks" in the movie were not ats beautiful as the other characters their innure beauty was able to be shown. The film was very controversial when it was first released becausae of the actors that were used, it was cut short of its original time, and was not recogniziable by many. Howeverm i feel that if more people were exposed to this film they could learn that its more than just looks that counts. Its like the saying goes" you should never judge a book by its cover"
