A biography of director Tod Browning was recently published. I bought it the other day but, unfortunately, I haven't actually had the time to even open it yet. However, I know it deals with Freaks and censorship. An excerpt of the book appears in the current issue of Filmfax magazine. I did read this article and it specifically deals with Freaks and the reactions it caused at MGM, and the US and UK markets. A great black and white photo of Browning and a few cast members is on the cover. ---- To signoff SCREEN-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF SCREEN-L in the message. Problems?
