Step right up and join us for a dive into The Greatest Show on Earth, Cecil B. DeMille’s over-the-top circus epic, in this special episode of The Shame List Picture Show. We’re thrilled to welcome back Derek St. Holmes Esq., professional wrestler, podcaster, and circus historian, to share his wealth of knowledge on the history of circuses and how this film captures the spectacle and drama of life under the big top. From high-flying stunts to behind-the-scenes chaos, Derek and Michael unpack the film’s lasting impact and why it may or may not be a classic. Don’t miss this wild ride!
