On one such excursion, the group encounters a man who typifies what they believe themselves to be, a “Bad greasy character”. Their…

critic might say it's ‘A celebration of humanity’,”. The movie shows what P.T Barnum was able to do things that were viewed very odd. According to the article “The Phineas T.
