The Side Show of Life

The Side Show of Life is a 1924 American silent drama film produced by Famous Players–Lasky, directed by Herbert Brenon and distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film is based on the 1920 novel The Mountebank by William J. Locke, which had been turned into a play by Ernest Denny.

Ernest Torrence stars in the role of a clown during World War I which is similar to that of Lon Chaney's in He Who Gets Slapped, released that same year, and in Laugh, Clown, Laugh, released four years later. Norman Trevor starred in the Broadway play in 1923.

A seemingly unobtainable print of The Side Show of Life survives in the Gosfilmofond archive, Moscow.
