MY FAVOURITE FILM: THE GREATEST SHOWMAN

The Greatest Showman is a 2017 American musical film directed by Michael Gracey in his directorial debut, written by Jenny Bicks and Bill Condon and starring Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya.

The film starts with the main characters who is P.T. Barnum performing in a show at the circus. Then we can see a flashback to the Barnums childhood and we can see that he is poor and he works with his Dad who is a tailor. While they are working he gets to know Charity who becomes the love of his life, and they finally create a family. Suddenly, he is fired so he decides to create a circus. The memebers of the circus are people who aren't accepted by the society, and it is hard for the main character to gain recognition. He gets obsessed by his job trying to gain more recognition and he lets out his mates and family. But in the end the return all together and finish happily ever after.

As the film is about a circus, it shows a lot of accrobatics and special effects and the way the filmed this makes it more incredible. Also as it is a musical the songs are really important and the dances also. I think the actors did a really good job because their acting was awesome and this improved the film. Also the costumes they use in the circus are incredible and I think it was important to mention it.
Some of the scene that I liked are for example a scene where Zendaya and Zac Efron are singing and dancing together and they do a lot of acrobatics. They use slow motion to focus on the moment and it really works,it is an amazing scene. Their is also another scene were the members of the circus feel left out by the main character, and they start singing the son Thi is me, to show that the are also part of the society and they are important to.

I would recommend this film for those who like musical and romantic film, because there are a lot of songs that in my opinion make the film look better because with the songs they transmit their feeling.
