Director: Guillermo del ToroWriter: Guillermo del Toro, Kim Morgan, William Lindsay GreshamStars: Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Toni ColletteSummary: An extraordinary description of a freak-show geek alcoholic and abject and the object of the voyeuristic crowd's gleeful disgust and derision going about his work at a county fair. Young Stan Carlisle is working as a carny, and he wonders how a man could fall so low. There's no way in hell, he vows, that anything like that will ever happen to him.
