Filmmakers Sue Corcoran and Angie Louise show vision and courage with this wild 10-minute ride through the existential carnival of life. This film makes you laugh, flinch, and think. Much in it caught me off guard; while "Circus" keeps you entertained, it's also uncomfortable, kinda like life. I am a big fan of the Von Piglets and recommend this short as well as their insane feature "Gory Gory Hallelujah". Kudos on this one to Corcoran's unique and masterful direction, Louise's fearless screen presence and great song at the end of the flick, and performances ranging from the brave (Wendy Ashford) to the polished (David White) to the perfect (Les Nesman as God). While it definitely marches to the beat of its own drum, "Circus" is well worth the watch.
