About Carnival Show

Directed by Milton Schwarzwald, Carnival Show leans on a strong ensemble — Clyde Hager, Jan Peerce, Three DeLovelies — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1938.
