Clarer3 (2 KP) rated The Greatest Showman: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Original Soundtrack / Various Artists in Music

Oct 26, 2018

People had been going on about this film for a few months before I decided “right everyone’s going on let’s see what the fuss it about” and damn why did I wait so long and miss out on seeing this on the big screen! It was fabulous! The colours, wardrobe, songs and cinematography was amazing! And a film you could watch on repeat.

Your transported away and back to the 19th century to P.T Barnums childhood pointing out the social hierarchies and the struggles he grew up with, while growing up and falling for a girl that’s upper class and showing he sacrifices she also made for love.

Fast forward a couple of years and there’s still a struggled combined with keeping his promises to his wife and children. Until he realised his dream of showcasing the worlds oddities,we follow his journey into success, downfalls, love, loss and an ongoing battle. A story that keeps you locked to the screen,smiling, crying and defiantly singing along!

A lovely addition to my favourite musicals list!

This book throws you right back into the action 6 months from the ending of the last book. The plot rockets from about 1- 100 in the span of a page. I started and finished this book in the same day. That is how engrossed I was and how much I needed to know how it ends.

The dual perspective gives us two very different sides of the story. Each side has enough angst and high drama that you won’t feel bored with one. This is great since lately a lot of dual POV bore me.
The romance is more subtle in this book and it focuses more on Kate and Corwin growing as individual characters. And there is a lot of growth that happens. From book one through the ending of this you feel that each character grows and changes. Some not in the best way.
Overall this was the perfect duology. If had action, magic, horses, heartbreak, and love. If you enjoyed the first book you will Love this one.

Movie Rating

Taylor Swift is a powerhouse. Throughout this film she goes through her career and how she ended up to this spot, to build this album, to create this life for herself. She discusses her struggles with food, the media, her "downfall" after another Kanye West debacle, loving herself, living for herself, and so much more.

I might be biased a bit, as I've loved Taylor since she first hit the scene so many years ago, but what I love most is her openness to grow, to change, to learn from who she was, and all of those things have created who she is now. As a woman, she is fierce, strong, loud, a boss, a fighter, a dreamer, and so much more. She's herself and throughout the film, you watch her tell the story of how she came to love the person that she is.

Music documentaries are some of my favorite films to exist and this one might just have shot to the top of the list.
