This was a little bit disappointing. I'd seen Errol Morris' later film Mr. Death (1999) and found it fascinating. In this film, though, even though he has four eccentrics to follow around (a lion-tamer, a topiary gardener, an expert on naked mole rats, and a robotics scientist), he mostly just conducts talking head interviews, and cuts in shots of the circus, and of a laughably bad B-movie starring famed lion-tamer Clyde Beatty. I just didn't find the subjects all that interesting, and Morris never really explores their motivations or their lives outside of their careers, interesting as those might sound. (7/ 10)
