The Greatest Showman

The Greatest Showman primarily evokes strong feelings of Joy, Inspiration, Excitement, and Happiness due to its vibrant musical numbers, spectacular visuals, and the overarching theme of pursuing dreams and finding acceptance. Empathy is significant, stemming from P.T. Barnum's journey from poverty to success and the struggles of the unique individuals who find a home in his circus. Hope and Love are central, reflecting the belief in oneself and the importance of family and belonging. While there are dramatic elements leading to Sadness and Anxiety as Barnum faces setbacks and neglects his family, these serve to heighten the eventual Satisfaction and Awe derived from his redemption and the show's grand success.
