Too many "freaks"

if you can get past the first 15 mins. or so, it's a surprisingly decent film of love and revenge. Browning does a good job at showing the family side of the circus sideshow acts. A few less characters could've made this a more sound film, some of the "freaks" are seen and maybe even heard from but we know little about them. Character development surely wasn't part of the plan. Decent, but not great.
