THE GREATEST SHOWMAN

THE GREATEST SHOWMAN:  This original musical based loosely on the inventor of  "show business," P. T. Barnum is a wonderful role for the multi-talented Hugh Jackman.  And he wears it well. No, make that exquisitely! This rags to riches story is so full of heart that it practically bursts from the screen.  The score is a treasure with some of the most exuberant dancing you will ever see this side of "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers."  The supporting cast led by Michelle Williams and Zac Efron are all first rate.  The entire film is a wonder to behold and the perfect way to spend some time during the holidays.   It will make you smile from ear to ear for hours on end.   Go see it on the big screen!   You won't regret it.  It is pure joy!
