The Greatest Showman

The Greatest Showman is a 2017 American biographical musical drama film directed by Michael Gracey (in his directorial debut) from a screenplay written by Jenny Bicks and Bill Condon, and a story by Bicks. The film stars an ensemble cast led by Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya. Featuring nine original songs from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul and a score composed by John Debney and Joseph Trapanese, the film is based on the story and life of P.T. Barnum, a famous showman and entertainer, and his creation of the Barnum & Bailey Circus and the lives of its star attractions.

The film was released in the United States on December 20, 2017, by 20th Century Fox. It received positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances, musical numbers, and production values, but some criticized its historical inaccuracies. The film was a commercial success, grossing over $435 million worldwide, making it the fifth-highest-grossing live-action musical film of all time.

The Greatest Showman won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for “This Is Me” and was nominated for two Academy Awards: Best Original Song for “This Is Me” and Best Costume Design. The film’s soundtrack was also a commercial success, reaching number one on the Billboard 200 chart.

The Greatest Showman is a feel-good film that celebrates the power of acceptance and the importance of following your dreams. It is a visually stunning film with catchy songs that will stay with you long after you watch it.

Here are some of the things that make The Greatest Showman a good movie:

• The performances are top-notch. Hugh Jackman gives a star-making turn as P.T. Barnum, and Zac Efron is excellent as his rival, Phillip Carlyle. Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya are also all great in their supporting roles.
