Tod Browning 's 1932 film "Freaks" is often regarded as one of the most significant films about disability in history - however, it has much wider significance as well. It was among the first films to use genuine disabled actors playing disabled roles, and is arguably unique - not only for its time, but perhaps even now among cinema-released films - in its portrayal of disability community and identity.
