Water For Elephants 2011
The film opens in the present day, when the proprietor of a small
traveling circus encounters an elderly man who has apparently become
detached from his nursing home group, which attended the circus earlier
that day. They strike up a conversation and the elderly man reveals that
he himself had a career in the circus business. Jacob (Hal Holbrook)
reveals that he was present during one of the most infamous circus
disasters of all time and the circus owner asks him to share his story. August instructs Jacob to "fix" Silver and keep him performing as long
as possible. But Jacob cannot bear to see Silver's suffering and takes
it upon himself to put Silver down. August is furious with Jacob's
decision to euthanize Silver against orders. To show Jacob who is boss,
he threatens to throw him from the moving train - telling him that an
animal's suffering is nothing compared to a man's, and that Jacob must
carry out all of August's future orders if he wishes to keep his job.
