Five Men in a Circus
Audience Score
The main focus is on the 5 member band of a small circus as it runs into problems while touring rural Japan It also pays lots of attention to the two daughters of the aging and irascible ringmastercircus owner The high points are the sound and score and cinematography featuring a lot of vertiginous panning appropriate as high wire trapeze artists are also an important element in the film A fascinating sidelight on 30s Japan
