GREENFIELD – From the creators of last year’s Academy Award-winning “La La Land” comes “The Greatest Showman,” starring Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson and Zendaya. Loosely based on the life of famous showman P.T. Barnum (who reportedly coined the phrase “There’s a sucker born every minute”), the movie is an upbeat, music-filled celebration of diversity and over-coming life’s challenges whatever they may be. The movie begins with Barnum’s childhood and events that shaped his life, his marriage to a woman of privilege, the start of “Barnum’s American Museum,” as it is called in the movie. “The Greatest Showman” is showing now at Legacy 9, 2347 W. Main St. The movie is rated PG. Visit legacycinema.com for more information.
