Freak Show
TrailerBilly Bloom is one-of-a-kind: a fabulous, glitter-bedecked, gender-bending teenager whose razor-sharp wit is matched only by his outrageous, anything-goes fashion sense. When his glamorous mother is forced to send him to live with his straight-laced father, Billy discovers that he's like a diva-out-of-water at his new ultra-conservative high school. Undaunted by the bullies who don't understand him, the fearless Billy sets out to make a big statement in his own inimitable way.Actors: Abigail Breslin, AnnaSophia Robb, Willa Fitzgerald, Alex Lawther, Bette Midler, Laverne Cox, Celia Weston, Mickey Sumner, Ian Nelson, Michael Park, Doris McCarthy, ...»Director: Trudie StylerCountry: United StatesDuration: 91 minQuality: HDRelease: 2017IMDb: 6.50 CommentsSort By- Newest

Critic Reviews of "Freak Show"
NPRJanuary 11, 2018There are times when Freak Show seems like a high school film repurposed from other high school films, rather than an authentic vision of life outside Chloë Sevigny's hometown.
New York TimesJanuary 11, 2018Mr. Lawther is sympathetic and appealing as Billy, but Ms. Styler seems to mistake broad strokes for stylistic daring, and her colorful but diffuse movie never jells.
VarietyJanuary 01, 2018Styler's peppy but thin foray into feature direction is especially disappointing following her strong track record as a producer of more singular, stylistically confident indies ...
Hollywood ReporterFebruary 14, 2017That it unfolds with a near-complete absence of finesse or subtlety probably won't matter a whit to a target audience weaned on Glee.
Film Journal InternationalJanuary 12, 2018Keeps things likeably frothy and delivers nicely on both entertainment and emotional fronts.
Cultured VulturesJanuary 08, 2018Freak Show is a much-needed film that focuses on a gender-nonconforming teen in high school and preaches the message of acceptance and inclusion.
HeyUGuysFebruary 15, 2017At the heart of this tale, and the film's paramount appeal, is the staggeringly impressive turn by Lawther, who manages to be so overtly confident in the role, and yet internally so vulnerable.
Screen InternationalFebruary 15, 2017Styler's directorial debut isn't the cinematic equivalent of wearing blue jeans, but much of its flash and style - though gorgeously costumed by Colleen Atwood and Sarah Laux - smacks of calculation and imitation rather than real flair.
