One of the most pro-disabled movies ever made, to this very day. The villains are the able-bodied people who plot to exploit them, and they get their comeuppance.
Well..."pro" is sort of subjective. This movie was one of a kind and sparked conversations that eventually led to these types of people being banned/forbidden from the circus. That's why we don't see these types anymore. If it could be re-viewed as "pro", be cool to see them in the circus again.
@fuhq6731 They had far better lives as part of the circus than they otherwise would have had. They got to travel, socialize with their fellow performers, and it provided them actual gainful employment. The only alternative for many of them was to spend their lives rotting away in an institution somewhere.

Wow, so I never realized that 'AHS: Freakshow' had so many characters inspired by real people from that era. It seems as if the creative team even pulled inspiration from this exact film for costumes and set design too.
We don’t have them anymore, but back then, the freak shows were the only place a lot of these people could survive. I remember seeing them as a kid, but it was the last gasp of these shows, and kind of weird at that point, but the 1800s and early 1900s didn’t offer someone like that much of a chance at a normal life, so a lot of them took to that life in the fairs and circuses.
@@okjeffy6581 mid 40s. There were still freak shows in the 80’s. Nothing like back in the early 1900’s, but they were there. They disappeared some time in the early 90’s at our state fair.

A fantastic film, always heard of it growing up, finally in my 40s got to see it and loved it.the carnival family is great,most may not be actors but they did a great job,came to love em and rot for them.HIGHLY recommend seeing it, truly worth while.

This is exceptional. You've captured the two-strip technicolor tone beautifully - which is of course what it would have been filmed in at the time. Really well done.
This is perfect! This is one movie I always wanted to see in colour, or at least, a glimpse of what have been like colourized. Wish there was a colourized version of the whole movie. I wish I knew how to do this process myself. Anyway, however, thanks!
What is terrifying in this movie? How can you make fun of people with disabilities and syndromes? What is this hardness of heart? As an Arab Muslim doctor, it is very difficult for me to accept this shameful past of the West
@دكُتورة ٱرهـابيـة The cast were all members of a genuine freak show that went on tour. To some folk these people with their disabilities were something to be feared...this is the nature of some, to be afraid of a thing or anyone different, sadly. I'm just glad they could make a living from being different, as the alternative would have been to become beggars or starve to death. I don't doubt some laughed, maybe ridiculed them, but they had to pay hard cash for doing so. In this film, the full version, one of the cast, a woman, acts as a vile person towards one of the other characters. She's the one screaming, as the others pursue her. She pays the ultimate price, as she ends up as a freak herself, when they get hold of her. Some watching the movie are afraid of her, the character she plays. Some are afraid of the others and what they do to her. Some thinks it's funny that karma punishes her. You'll need to watch the entire movie to understand the context.
So you choose to ignore history? It happened, whether you like it, or not. And yes, there are people from all different continents and religion that would commit worse atrocities today, given half the chance. This movie gives you a good insight into the lives of these people and attitudes of that time. It doesn't mean they reflect the beliefs of the viewer in the present day.
Oh my i so wish this was available on blu-ray in color! I wish whatever studio owns this would take the time to put it out in color! What a wonderful film it's one of my all time favs! Great job colorizing!
A movie portraying the disabled as normal people absolutely COULD get made today. It’s by the grace of God this film even got made at all back in the early 30s.
I've never seen this movie, but I have seen American Horror Story Season 4 and my god, they got nearly everything exactly the same. The level of detail in that show is astonishing.
@@beardedskyrim8652 yeah, copying a small movie from the 30s. I guess once someone makes something, that's it then. Can't make anything similar, can't pay homage, can't take inspiration, reference it, or anything. You must be fun to talk to

I've had two thoughts on this - first, the unbelievable lack of respect and dignity shown to those with disabilities that they wound up in circuses for the amusement of others, secondly, they may have wound up in some institution where they would have been treated inhumanely, so, seems they had both a bond and a family being together in one place.

Ive never seen this movie, but I heard and read about it. Now I clearyl see the connection between this and American Horror Storys season 4. Seeing this movie colorized brings it to full glory like everything that gets colorized these days. Its amazing! Back then it was an expensive work and now basically everyone can do it. Great job! ❤
I had the pleasure of knowing schlitzie, on the old craft shows. And then on and off on numerous shows. The sword swallower, and tattooed men were wantabe freaks. I should know I had full body suit in 1968. I went straight in the 70s, but every once in a while I catch myself remembering the days of being "with it". I do not miss that life, but would not ever give up the experiences and education I received on it. Now with all my tattoos, I simply look like every other idiot out there....
This specifically must have inspired the creators of Red Dead Redemption 2, because of the crashed wagon, and that one person looks very much like Bertram or whatever his name was!
I think it could but would have a different meaning to it as back then the are laughed at for being freaks and most likely treated poorly but I think these are some really amazing people with more skill than most today. Would work as a story about them or even their gifts
@@Budbrothers420 in it’s time the film was very controversial, these people were literally not thought of as human, they were seen by many to be almost evil and frightening. I think the film did a good job of really humanising them, showing how they cope with their differences and just want to lead ordinary lives, forced into the commune they live as best they can (ironically some of them earnt very, very large sums of money in their lives). Thankfully we live in more enlightened times so the film takes on a very different meaning today.
@@jonboulton6701 yeah it’s a shame people did these horrible things to them. You could say our upbringing makes our view but I feel like it falls under what people can’t understand or are afraid of wish the world could work together think of what we could achieve
I find it word that people say this film couldn't happen today, wasn't the thing that made this film so interesting is the fact that it was super controversial when it came out? People are a lot more accepting of those with disabilities now, it would probably go over much better.
@@RumbleDogPictures Oh I see! Well you did a splendid job with this! And I'd definitely love to see more of these old movies in color! Any chance you take requests?
@@loisannebarin6995 Thank you, I should start a business! Problem is youtube will take down many clips, for example I can't post my colourized Alice in Wonderland scenes. But I'm curious what you had in mind.
Alice In Wonderland from 1933?! I would love to see the Mock Turtle in Color. This is amazing, by the way. Not just the color but it also looks so cleaned up, too.
Cool. In the mob of vindictive freaks scene, it looks like the microcephalic person in the mob dressed to look like Schlitzie, is not actually Schlitzie. It is a a relatively normal man dressed to look like Schlitzie. I didn't notice that in the original monochrome version. I'm thinking that it seems likely that maybe the real Schlitzie wasn't easily persuaded to perform in this scene and he may have had difficulty following instructions, so they just substituted someone else.
Freak shows are such a grey area. In one aspect, they were a way to make a spectacle out of a persons disabilities and deformities. In the other aspect, they gave people like this a true profession instead of relegating them to infirmaries and asylums plus a great wage.
That was a 50/50 proposition. Some of these folks were not treated well in the traveling shows. Others as you say did go on to live very rewarding lives.
It was kind of necessary evil they were not great at all for the people in them, but at the same time, there was simply no better place for them in that society.

This is common society 2023
I guess Schlitzie mutter with smile "Well done ,Well done"
Ive never seen this movie, but I heard and read about it. Now I clearyl see the connection between this and American Horror Storys season 4.
Seeing this movie colorized brings it to full glory like everything that gets colorized these days. Its amazing! Back then it was an expensive work and now basically everyone can do it.
Great job! ❤
How had I never heard of this movie? It looks amazing. I have to say though, the bar on freaks has been raised since 1932.
Interesting to see this amazing film in colour. You did a fantastic job on it 👍
I had the pleasure of knowing schlitzie, on the old craft shows. And then on and off on numerous shows.
The sword swallower, and tattooed men were wantabe freaks. I should know I had full body suit in 1968.
I went straight in the 70s, but every once in a while I catch myself remembering the days of being "with it".
I do not miss that life, but would not ever give up the experiences and education I received on it.
Now with all my tattoos, I simply look like every other idiot out there....
This specifically must have inspired the creators of Red Dead Redemption 2, because of the crashed wagon, and that one person looks very much like Bertram or whatever his name was!
yes thought the same hahaha.
This mobile is a masterpiece and a beautyful history
GREAT SHOW
this movie could never happen today. great coloring
I think it could but would have a different meaning to it as back then the are laughed at for being freaks and most likely treated poorly but I think these are some really amazing people with more skill than most today. Would work as a story about them or even their gifts
@@Budbrothers420 in it’s time the film was very controversial, these people were literally not thought of as human, they were seen by many to be almost evil and frightening. I think the film did a good job of really humanising them, showing how they cope with their differences and just want to lead ordinary lives, forced into the commune they live as best they can (ironically some of them earnt very, very large sums of money in their lives). Thankfully we live in more enlightened times so the film takes on a very different meaning today.
@@jonboulton6701 yeah it’s a shame people did these horrible things to them. You could say our upbringing makes our view but I feel like it falls under what people can’t understand or are afraid of wish the world could work together think of what we could achieve
Give it time, if you take your eye off the right for even a moment they would have people back in cages again "exhibited" before their master race.
I find it word that people say this film couldn't happen today, wasn't the thing that made this film so interesting is the fact that it was super controversial when it came out? People are a lot more accepting of those with disabilities now, it would probably go over much better.
This is amazing!
Visionary and experimenter. Genius
This movie is a classic of what goes around, comes around.
Did you happen to do the full movie? This looks amazing!!
Thanks! Unfortunately I don't have the time to do the entire movie. But I will be colourizing more sequences from other movies.
@@RumbleDogPictures Oh I see! Well you did a splendid job with this! And I'd definitely love to see more of these old movies in color! Any chance you take requests?
@@loisannebarin6995 Thank you, I should start a business! Problem is youtube will take down many clips, for example I can't post my colourized Alice in Wonderland scenes. But I'm curious what you had in mind.
I would pay for the entire movie in color
Alice In Wonderland from 1933?! I would love to see the Mock Turtle in Color.
This is amazing, by the way. Not just the color but it also looks so cleaned up, too.
AHS captured this pretty good especially the character pepper
Also noticed a similarity with the fourth seasons AHS.
absolutely fantastic!
R.I.P. Freaks movie cast people :(
Cool. In the mob of vindictive freaks scene, it looks like the microcephalic person in the mob dressed to look like Schlitzie, is not actually Schlitzie. It is a a relatively normal man dressed to look like Schlitzie. I didn't notice that in the original monochrome version. I'm thinking that it seems likely that maybe the real Schlitzie wasn't easily persuaded to perform in this scene and he may have had difficulty following instructions, so they just substituted someone else.
ترا الفلظ هذا مرعب لو تشوفه كامل
I noticed that too, perhaps that scene was too scary for Slitzie.
Wow this is fantastic!!
In the 1930's this film had audiences horrified. It's easy to see why even 90 years later!
Superb, the attack of the freaks is still terrifying. Especially the dude in the rasta hat crawling along the ground.
Wish I could see the entire movie!
Streaming okru 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👈👈👈👈
One of the most influential films ever. I love being a “freak”!
your gender dosent make you a freak
The only difference is they didn't choose to be the way they were.
@alanwatts8239 Being trans isn’t exactly a choice.
Narcissistic much?
@@Funeral_Mannequin Yes it is.
Such a great movie!
Never knew there was a colored version
If this movie came out today it would still be way ahead of its time
YOu can sure see the inspiration of this short film on shows like the fourth season of American Horror Story!
A slice of genius.
wow, so this is where AHS got their inspiration from. nice to see this revived!
Freak shows are such a grey area. In one aspect, they were a way to make a spectacle out of a persons disabilities and deformities. In the other aspect, they gave people like this a true profession instead of relegating them to infirmaries and asylums plus a great wage.
That was a 50/50 proposition. Some of these folks were not treated well in the traveling shows. Others as you say did go on to live very rewarding lives.
It was kind of necessary evil
they were not great at all for the people in them, but at the same time, there was simply no better place for them in that society.
