The 8 times Oscar nominated true and poignant story of The Elephant Man, directed by David Lynch. John Merrick (John Hurt) is severely deformed at birth by a rare disease. His grossly disfigured face manifests the features of an elephant. Trapped in a travelling freak show, Merrick suffers the torment of an outcast from society until a young surgeon called Dr. Frederick Treves (Sir Anthony Hopkins) rescues him. The moving tale unravels as Treves discovers that beneath Merrick's monstrous façade lies a gentle and peaceful man. With its outstanding cast, and subtle and touching script, The Elephant Man proves to be one of David Lynch's finest.
