The most famous scene from the film. Directed por one of the greatest directors, David Lynch. John Merrick (The elefante Man) and Dr. Treves are played por two of the greatest actors, John Hurt and Anthony Hopkins

The poesía in the ending scene is "Nothing will Die" written por Alfred Lord Tennyson

Arresting opening, portraying John Merrick's mother mythical encounter with angry elephants. Very Lynchian, especially the use of smoke.

A study in human dignity...

This is the trailer from the beautiful movie "The elefante Man", starring Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt and Anne Bancroft. The movie is based on the true life of John (Joseph) Merrick who lived from 1862 to 1890 and suffered from The Protheus Syndrome.
