Audio problem: During "This is me", when they enter the room and get to the "oooh oh oh" part if you watch the albino the sync is out as their mouths open after the music has ended on that part.
The Greatest Showman (2017)
1 audio problem - chronological order
Directed by: Michael Gracey
Starring: Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya
Continuity mistake: When Barnum goes to see Charity by the beach at the end of the film, they embrace. As the camera shows a close up of their faces Charity's head is on Barnum's right shoulder, but when they reverse the shot to show her expression she is now on his left shoulder. (01:30:10)
P.T. Barnum: The noblest art is that of making others happy.
Trivia: Making a film based on P.T. Barnum had been a passion project for star Hugh Jackman for some years before it was finally made. Reportedly, what kept the film from being made sooner was the fact that most major studios were apprehensive about producing an original musical not based on a pre-existing film or stageplay.
Question: Why was Zendaya considered as one of the "freaks" (like they called them), even though she looked normal?
Answer: I'm pretty sure because she was a person of colour.
Answer: Her brother said people of the time didn't want to see colored people on the stage. It's clear throughout the entire movie that she faces undue discrimination from the public just for not being white.
Answer: There were other people in the circus who were just normal but had amazing abilities.
She was half black and half white.

Answer: Because her actress, Zendaya, is mixed race (part African American and part Caucasian American), and Anne is either that too or African American (either way, she would have been ostracised at the time the movie is set), and so Anne would have been seen as a freak for that reason.
