The Elephant Man 12A
Newly restored for its 40th Anniversary, John Hunt stars as “the elephant man”, John Merrick, in David Lynch’s moving and unforgettable true story of cruelty, humanity and survival.
Merrick, a man affected with a profound facial disfigurement, is shunned by Victorian Society. But when an ambitious young doctor (Anthony Hopkins) sets out to help him, he discovers a man of sensibility and kindness beneath the surface.
