Dr. Frederic Treves (Anthony Hopkins) discovers Joseph (John) Merrick (John Hurt) in a sideshow: born with a congenital disorder, Merrick uses his disfigurement to earn a living as the 'Elephant Man'.
Treves brings Merrick into his home, discovering that his rough exterior hides a refined soul, and that Merrick can teach the stodgy British upper class of the time a lesson about dignity.
Part of David Lynch's Dream Theatre, a year-long tribute to an artist from another place. Our monthly screening of a Lynch masterpiece will also be paired with one film cited as an inspiration.
Read all about the Lynchspiration we’ve programmed alongside this David Lynch classic, along with the rest of the season’s double bills, here.
