Did anyone see this film? It was on TCM and very unusual....I was curious about the theme, and carnivals in that era, it seemed so -bizarre.....anyone read the novel?

I saw the picture years ago, very different for Power wasn't it? I think it has a following.
Thanks for this. I looked it up and it's in my queue. I love creepy old carny movies (well maybe not Todd Browning's Freaks )
Yes, it was on TCM recently, very strange and I need to get the DVD, he was actually very scary in this film! I wish they still made interesting movies like this...
I just watched it and enjoyed it very much. Terrific characters reinvigorate a standard old story of one with a gift abusing it and rising too far before falling. Set in atmospheric old carny setting. Tyrone Power is superb, and surrounded with a great cast. Thanks for the recommendation DOM!

You're welcome!. I saw it again on TCM the other day, his performance at the end was amazing. I also liked Joan Blondell as Zena; such an interesting film, they dont make them like this anymore, the reason I NEVER go to the theatre(except for plays) lol.
