Despite the obvious melodrama, I feel drawn to the big spectacle of DeMille's films. In "The Greatest Show on Earth," he captures the magic and danger of the circus and I felt the film actually worked, for the most part, emotionally. Jimmy Stewart once again proves he is an amazing actor, despite being buried beneath clown makeup the whole film.
