This is exactly what I was thinking the entire movie! At first you think the move is about "freaks" in a circus and clearly there were people classified as these characters. However, the real freaks were Cleopatra and Hercules. They saw themselves has something better then the everyone else. They were the stereotypical "normal" beings who treated "freaks" as worthless and stupid. This situation ended up turning against them because they had no one to turn to at the end. They were not apart of the family that was created at the circus. They ostracized themselves and were the ones treated like freaks. It really does show how ignorant a person can be. Its kind of a scary thing to think about. This movie wasn't exaggerating a thing. This film was so well done that it made you actually think. This how you know this movie is a classic.
