'''''Freaks''''' is a [[1932 in film|1932]] [[horror film]] about [[sideshow]] performers, directed and produced by [[Tod Browning]] with a cast mostly composed of actual carnival performers.

This film was based on [[Tod Robbins]]' short story ''[[Spurs (short story)|Spurs]]''. Director Tod Browning took the exceptional step of casting real people with deformities as the eponymous sideshow "freaks," rather than using costumes and makeup. Browning had been a member of a traveling [[circus]] in his early years, and much of the film was drawn from his personal experiences. He intended to portray the classic [[moral]] of how outer beauty does not necessarily equate to [[inner beauty]]. In the film, the physically deformed "freaks" are inherently trusting and honorable people, while the real monsters are two of the "normal" members of the circus who conspire to murder one of the performers to obtain his large inheritance.

Reaction to the film was so intense that the studio was forced to cut it from a length of approximately ninety minutes to just over an hour.<ref>[http://www.tcm.com/thismonth/article.jsp?cid=460&mainArticleId=183490 ''Freaks'' at Turner Classic Movies, by Jeff Stafford]</ref> Today, the parts that were removed from it are considered [[lost film|lost]]. Browning, famed at the time for his collaborations with [[Lon Chaney, Sr.|Lon Chaney]] and for directing [[Bela Lugosi]] in ''[[Dracula (1931 film)|Dracula]]'' ([[1931 in film|1931]]) had trouble finding work afterwards, and this in effect brought his career to an early close. Because its deformed cast was shocking to moviegoers of the time, the film was banned in the [[United Kingdom]] for thirty years. Beginning in the early 1960s, ''Freaks'' was rediscovered as a [[counterculture]] [[cult film]]; throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the film was regularly shown at [[midnight movie]] screenings at several movie theaters in the United States.<ref>{{cite web

The central story is of a self-serving [[trapeze]] artist named Cleopatra ([[Olga Baclanova]]) who seduces and eventually marries a [[sideshow]] [[midget]], Hans ([[The Doll Family|Harry Earles]]), after learning of his large inheritance.


==Warnings==
At their wedding reception, the other "freaks" resolve that they will accept Cleopatra in spite of her being a "normal" outsider, and hold an initiation ceremony, wherein they pass a massive [[goblet]] of [[wine]] around the table while chanting, "We accept her! We accept her! One of us! One of us! Gooble gobble, gooble gobble! One of us! One of us!" The ceremony frightens the drunken Cleopatra, who accidentally reveals that she has been having an affair with Hercules ([[Henry Victor]]), the strong man; she mocks the freaks, tosses the wine in their faces and drives them away. Despite being humiliated, Hans remains with Cleopatra.

Shortly thereafter, Hans is taken ill (presumably from having too much to drink at the wedding feast, but actually from poison that Cleopatra slipped him) and Cleopatra begins slipping [[poison]] into Hans' medicine to kill him so that she can inherit his money and run away with Hercules. One of the circus performers overhears Cleopatra talking to Hercules about the murder plot, and tells the other freaks and Hans; in the film's climax, the freaks attack Cleopatra and Hercules with guns, knives, and various edged weapons, hideously mutilating them. Though Hercules is never seen again, the original ending of the film had the freaks [[castration|castrating]] him - the audience sees him later singing in falsetto. The film concludes with a revelation of Cleopatra's fate: her tongue cut out, one eye gouged and legs hacked off, she has been reduced to performing in a sideshow as the imbecile squawking "human chicken".

Spliced throughout the main narrative are a variety of "slice of life" segments detailing the lives of the [[sideshow]] performers. The vignettes, while not advancing the main narrative, drive home the point that the physically malformed freaks are just as human as the other "normal" performers:

Among the [[microcephaly|microcephalics]] who appear in the film (and are referred to as "pinheads") were Zip and Pip (Elvira and Jenny Lee Snow) and [[Schlitzie]], a male named Simon Metz who wore a dress mainly due to [[incontinence]]. Also featured were the [[intersexual]] [[Josephine Joseph]], with her left/right divided gender; [[Johnny Eck]], the legless man; the completely limbless [[Prince Randian]] (also known as The Human Torso, and mis-credited as "Rardion"); [[Elizabeth Green the Stork Woman]]; and [[Koo-Koo the Bird Girl]], who suffered from [[Virchow-Seckel syndrome]] or bird-headed dwarfism, and is most remembered for the scene where she dances on the table).

MGM had purchased the rights to Robbins' short story ''Spurs'' in the 1920s at Browning's urging. In June 1932, MGM production supervisor [[Irving Thalberg]] offered Browning the opportunity to direct ''[[Arsène Lupin]]'' with [[John Barrymore]]. Browning declined, preferring to develop ''Freaks'', a project he had started as early as 1927. Screenwriters [[Willis Goldbeck]] and [[Elliott Clawson]] were assigned to the project at Browning's request. [[Leon Gordon]], [[Edgar Allen Woolf]], [[Al Boasberg]] and an uncredited [[Charles MacArthur]] would also contribute to the script. The script was shaped over five months. Little of the original story was retained beyond the marriage between midget and average sized person and the wedding feast.

''Freaks'' began filming in October 1931 and was completed in December. Following disastrous test screenings in January 1932 (one woman threatened to sue MGM, claiming the film had caused her to suffer a [[miscarriage]]), the studio cut the picture down from its original 90 minute running time to just over an hour. Much of the sequence of the freaks attacking Cleopatra as she lay under a tree was removed, as were a number of comedy sequences and most of the film's original epilogue. A new prologue featuring a [[Barker (occupation)|carnival barker]] was added, as was the new epilogue featuring the reconciliation of the tiny lovers. This shortened version had its premiere at the [[Fox Criterion]] in [[Los Angeles]] on February 10.<ref>{{cite news

School IP address Attention:

This IP address, 216.11.79.25, is registered to Oakland Schools, Waterford, MI and may be shared by multiple users of an educational institution. In the case of institutions using proxy servers, this IP address may in fact represent many users at many physical computers.

For this reason a message intended for one person may be received by another. Similarly an innocent user may get blocked for another user's vandalism. If you are editing from this address and are frustrated by irrelevant messages, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself. In some cases you may temporarily be unable to create an account due to efforts to fight vandalism, in which case please read our advice on this situation.

Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking - if a block is needed, administrators should consider a soft block with the template {{schoolblock|optional comment}} as the block reason.

Note: In the event of persistent vandalism from this IP address, anonymous editing may be disabled for up to 1 year at a time. Abuse reports may also be forwarded to your school administration for investigation.
School staff who want to monitor vandalism from this IP address can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.
