Folie de Mars

I've spent hours reading about Barnum and Bailey. The truth is pretty horrible. In order to appreciate this beautiful film, it's important to acknowledge that it is a work of fiction. I wish they had used different names instead of using Barnum and his family, but it is what it is. My tiny nieces introduced me to the movie while I was in Louisiana. I never thought my current favorite song would be sung by Zac Efron from High School Musical and a child star from Nickelodeon Disney that I hadn't heard of before. Oh, Zendaya, you goddess! And Zac was perfect for this role. Just spectacular. What incredibly talented young people.

And how about that Hugh Jackman. Wow, he hit another home run with this movie. I'm a fan!
