Review of Trapeze (1956) by Andrew I — 24 Feb 2012

I've never much liked circuses, clowns, lion tormentors or sad bears riding bikes, so "Trapeze" may not seem like the perfect film for me. It started off looking like Rocky for trapeze artists, but then it became a drawn-out love triangle, wobbled around in the middle 20 minutes longer than it needed to, and by the end I was pretty much shouting "come on Tony, do the triple and let's go home".

Not bad, not good, but very middling.
