God loves every one of his children

The first film review, with spoilers and caution. Although it is a black-and-white movie from the 1940s, the storyline is fairly complete. The actors in the film are really deformed people, which makes the film more practical. The life that God gives to everyone is the same and fair, and physical disabilities require more respect than ridicule. It is better to say that the film is a collision of physical deformity and psychological deformity than it is discrimination against the deformed person. Although I am not a deformed person, I always feel in my mind that what they want is not our pity, but wants us to look at them with the eyes of normal people. When we are complaining about the unsuccessful career and the failure of love, have you ever wondered what kind of mood they feel when facing their physical disabilities? They are often very optimistic and full of hope in life, but we normal people behave so weak in the face of difficulties. The freaks in the film may bring me some uncomfortable reactions physically or psychologically, but when we analyze the director’s psychology, it is not difficult to see that the freaks are expressed in a simple and straightforward way, and they desire normal people’s lives and get normal people. Respect. The end of the drama is thought-provoking: physical deformities are considered dirty, and psychological abnormalities are dirty?

The freaks inside have no special effects, including the nimble halfling. It's really worth remembering at the end.

It is estimated that the impact on ordinary audiences was particularly strong in that era. No wonder it was a fiasco at the box office, but to find so many actors with abnormal appearance and body, Todd Browning is really amazing.

Carnival Barker: We didn't lie to you folks. We told you we had living, breathing, monstrosities. You laughed at them, shuddered at them. And, yet, but for the accident of birth, you might be one as they are. They did not ask to be brought into the world. But, into the world they came. Their code is a law unto themselves: offend one and you offend them all.
