After finishing the movie in class i realized a few things. One that i figured out after we summarized in class the section from the essay called "Cultural Fixions of the Freak Body: Conney Island and the Postmodern Sideshow," is that you never can tell who the so called "freak s." This depends 0n your setting and who is around you. On these side shows the freaks are the normal people and in the outside world, the term "freak" isn't something that should be used at all. Also from watching this movie is that people who these physical disabilities are actually very functional like the man with no hands or legs who can roll the cigarette, and has a complet family of his own. This surprised me and i found myself no on longer feeling bad for these people anymore, because they were making livings, had families and were living as normal of a life that they could.
