Make Up

Alfred Zeisler directs this classic circus-set drama starring Nils Asther, June Clyde and Judy Kelly.

Born into a family of travelling circus performers but educated to become a surgeon at the wishes of his parents, Bux (Asther) forsakes his career for a circus lifestyle regardless and very quickly becomes a main attraction for the audience.

However, Lorenzo (Kenne Duncan), a fellow performer who has grown jealous of Bux's fame, seeks to compromise his act by poisoning his animals.

But who will really suffer as a consequence of Lorenzo's actions?
