Review of The Greatest Show on Earth (1952) by K D — 31 Jan 2009

Very entertaining film... just the circus acts alone make this film worth watching... but the story and the performances are great as well. I really loved Gloria Grahame in this one... every time she was on the screen it made this one worth it.

I couldn't get enough of James Stewart as a clown... and he really did play a good clown! And leave it to Charlton Heston to make a circus leader look like the most powerful man on earth. Really entertaining and a pretty neat story as well.
