So did it deserve to loose to the Disaster Artist?
 
The real P.T Barnum was a cruel sonafabitch

Yep, but don't let that stop you from watching the movie. Think of this movie as a fictitious broadway musical.
They also downplayed the role of the circus animals a lot -which we know is not historically accurate.
But the movie is still something to behold.
 
Do yourself a favour and watch the movie that Disaster artist is based on.Let me know how far into the movie you get lol

Watched both (+ The Room) & I still prefer Showman. Having said that DA really captured the essence of Tommy Wiseau, it's really well told.

yup, I've read some accounts that his handlers used to stick hot pokers up elephant's trunks to train them :wtf:

but 100%, I am keen to watch this one.
