    An old movie where a well known actor plays several different roles.
    I am trying to remember an old movie where, I think, the same well known actor played several roles. As I remember it was about a traveling sideshow that went from town to town in these old circus type wagons. A man or young man comes upon this camp and meets an old sage. I think he was Asian (maybe a China Man). Well anyway, in each wagon there were these strange Carnival Sideshow people. I think there may have been Siemese twins in one. In each tent there was some kind of challenge or lesson the man had to learn. The part I thought was cool was this mini dragon with several heads in a cage. The old man lets it out of the cage and magically it grows into a hugh monstster that the man has to battle. This was long before CG figures and it was in color! The title was something like Mr... somebody's something. Big help I know but Iam getting old and maybe I there is no such film. I think I may have watched it in the 1960's. When Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium came out the title sounded like this other old movie I'm trying to remember. Only the title seemed the same other than that the two movies were totally different. Was it something like... The Wonerderous World of Mr Wang ? I don't know. I also remember thinking that the actor was who was playing the Asian was a well known Englishman maybe Peter O' Toole. Can anyone help me or have I been on the ferris wheel one too many times?
