Mine-Haha: Or, on the Bodily Education of Young Girls

Artist/Author: Frank Wedekind | Reference: P3095 | ISBN: 978-1843914556 | Type: Publication

Freaks

Artist/Author: Tod Browning | Reference: D2236 | Type: DVD

Now regarded as a landmark film but virtually disowned by MGM when it was first produced, Browning’s film, set in a travelling circus, works as an old-fashioned morality play against avarice. Browning used a collection of handicapped actors and performers for the circus community, which initially welcomes the beautiful trapeze artist Cleopatra into their group when she marries midget circus owner, Hans.

60 minutes.
