My Review... On The Elephant Man


The Elephant Man is a film of great film full with character and passion.  Obviously great time and detail was placed into the piece, which makes one as a human reflect on the deceiving truths that society hides.  Personally, John Merrick (the elephant man) has more knowledge, compassion, and gratitude that another human being could have.  In despite of his condition he did not show weakness.  He was a pure gentleman one of few who portray the true meaning of sincerity and humbleness.  Those, men who partied and disrespected their women to only have a one night stand were the ones to bully John Merrick.  Through my eyes I view it as if to now seem weak or scared they approached our “elephant man” and create a superior level for him or herself.  The true monster is not the one that has a different physical condition than others but those who have rotten soul for it is possible to change the physical view but not the internal.

  1. Nice. I like "the deceiving truths that society hides…” So true. Well said, and I’m glad you got meaning out of the film.
