Freaks (1932)
Directed by: Tod Browning
Cleopatra is at the center of this picture and happens to steal the heart of Hans. Hans is completely blinded by affection fails to see the horrible plot afoot. Cleopatra plans to steal his fortune and run off with Hercules her beau. Will Hans find out the truth?
I've often heard of this film. When I looked at the #1001filmsyoumustseebeforeyoudie it was listed. I figured now's a good as time as any to see it. I believe it made the list for the cinematography that is stunning. It also plays on the theme of beauty. That despite how outwardly beautiful Cleopatra is she can't hide how truly rotten she is to the core.
8/10
