The movie was made by Al Boasberg, Willis Goldbeck, Leon Gordon, and Edgar Allan Woolf from the short story Spurs by Tod Robbins. Browning, famed at the time for his collaborations with Lon Chaney and for directing Bela Lugosi in Dracula (1931), took the exceptional step of casting real people with deformities as the eponymous sideshow "freaks," rather than using costumes and makeup. Director Browning had been a member of a traveling circus in his early years, and much of the film was drawn from his personal experiences. He intended to portray the classic moral of how outer beauty does not necessarily equate to inner beauty. In the film, the physically deformed "freaks" are inherently trusting and honorable people, while the real monsters are two of the "normal" members of the circus who conspire to murder one of the performers to obtain his large inheritance. Leon Gordon, originally Judar Loeb Ben Asher, (1831-1892) was a Russian-Jewish poet and novelist (Hebrew). ...

Reaction to this film was so intense that Browning had trouble finding work afterwards, and this in effect brought his career to an early close. Because its deformed cast was shocking to moviegoers of the time, the film was banned in the United Kingdom for thirty years.

Plot synopsis
Freaks tells the story of a trapeze artist named Cleopatra (played by Olga Baclanova) who marries a sideshow midget, Hans (played by Harry Earles), for his inheritance. An acrobat below a balloon Trapeze artists, in lithograph by Calvert Litho. ...
Olga Vladimirovna Baklanova (August 19, 1896 – September 6, 1974) was a Russian actress. ...
Elly del Sarto in c. ...
In the 19th century, midget was a medical term referring to an extremely short but normally-proportioned person and was used in contrast to dwarf, which denoted disproportionate shortness. ...
The Doll Family The Doll Family was a group of four dwarf siblings who were popular performers in circuses and sideshows from the 1920s until their retirement in the mid 1950s. ...
At their wedding reception, the other "freaks" resolve that they accept Cleopatra in spite of her being a "normal" outsider, and hold an initiation ceremony, wherein they pass a massive goblet of wine around the table while chanting, "We accept her! We accept her! One of us! One of us! Gooble gobble, gooble gobble! One of us! One of us!" The ceremony frightens the drunken Cleopatra, who reveals that she has been having an affair with Hercules, the strong man, and begins to mock the freaks and pours out the wine all over the circus performers; despite the revelation of being humiliated, Hans remains with Cleopatra. Russian chalice A chalice (from Latin calix, cup) is a goblet, intended to hold just drink. ...
For other uses, see Wine (disambiguation). ...
Shortly thereafter, Hans is taken ill (presumably from having too much to drink at the wedding feast, but actually from poison that Cleopatra slipped him) and Cleopatra begins slipping poison into Hans' medicine to kill him so that she can inherit his money and run away with Hercules. One of the circus performers overhears Cleopatra talking to Hercules about the murder plot, and reveals it to the other freaks and Hans; in the film's climax, the freaks attack Cleopatra and Hercules with guns, knives, and various edged weapons, hideously mutilating them (and presumably killing Hercules; he is never seen again.) The film concludes with a revelation of Cleopatra's fate: Her tongue cut out and her legs hacked off, she has been reduced to performing in a side show as "the human duck." The original ending of the film had the freaks castrating Hercules, who would then be reduced to a soprano opera singer for the rest of his career. However, this segment was removed after negative reception in early screenings The skull and crossbones symbol (Jolly Roger) traditionally used to label a poisonous substance. ...

Other plot details Spliced throughout the main narrative are a variety of "slice of life" segments detailing the lives of the sideshow performers. The vignettes, while not advancing the main narrative, drive home the point that the physically malformed freaks are just as human as their non-malformed co-workers: Elly del Sarto in c. ...
- The bearded woman, who loves the human skeleton, gives birth to their daughter.
- Violet, a conjoined twin whose sister Daisy is married to one of the circus clowns, herself becomes engaged to the owner of the circus. (In a risque moment, Daisy appears to react with sexual arousal when Violet is kissed by her suitor, implying that each sister can experience the other's physical sensations.)
- The Human Torso, played by Prince Randian, in the middle of a conversation, takes his own pre-rolled cigarette and lights it, using only his tongue.
The film also stars Wallace Ford, Leila Hyams, and Earles' real-life sister Daisy Earles. The bearded woman has been a phenomenon of legend, curiosity, ridicule, and more recently, political statement and fashion statement. ...

Among the characters featured as "freaks" were the Hilton twins, a pair of female conjoined twins; and the armless wonders, Frances O'Connor and Martha Morris. There were several microcephalics who were referred to in the film as "pinheads". The most notable of these was Schlitzie, who wore a dress mainly to make it easier to use the toilet, but who was in fact a male named Simon Metz. Other microcephiles were Zip and Pip (Elvira and Jenny Lee Snow). Also featured were the intersexual Josephine Joseph, with her left/right divided gender; Johnny Eck, the legless man; and the completely limbless Prince Randian (also known as The Human Torso, and mis-credited as "Rardion"). There was also Koo-Koo the Bird Girl (who suffered from Virchow-Seckel syndrome or bird-headed dwarfism, and who is most remembered for the scene where she dances on the table), Elizabeth Green the Stork Woman, Peter Robinson the Living Skeleton and Olga Roderick the Bearded Lady. The Hilton twins were a pair of conjoined twins who toured in the US sideshow and vaudeville circuit in the 1930s. ...

Perhaps the film's most notable effect on popular culture is due to the influence of American punk rock band the Ramones. The film had a profound effect on them when they saw it while on tour in 1977. In the years to come quotes and imagery from the film would feature regularly in their lyrics, most notably in "Pinhead". During live shows in later years, they were often joined on stage by a costumed "pinhead", who would dance and wave a "gabba-gabba-hey!" banner. In the 2005 documentary "End of the Century", a poster for the film is displayed in a framed case behind Johnny Ramone during most of the interviews with him.
The famous quotation At one point in the film, the Freak crowd cries: "Gooble gobble, gooble gobble, we accept her, we accept her, one of us, one of us!" It is a phrase that has since been honored or used in homage numerous times: - It was nominated by AFI for AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movie Quotes[1], which was a voted-upon list of the greatest movie quotations in the history of American cinema. The quotation from Freaks didn't make the top 100.
