Londen 1884. Tegen betaling kunnen kijklustigen op de kermis de verschrikkelijk misvormde John Merrick (Hurt), artiestennaam The Elephant Man, bekijken. Een jonge arts (Hopkins) bevrijdt hem uit de klauwen van zijn eigenaar en brengt hem naar een ziekenhuis om hem te onderzoeken. Hij ontdekt dat Merrick intelligent en gevoelig is met een sterke persoonlijkheid. Fascinerend drama dat op feiten gebaseerd is. Een tour-de-force van acteur Hurt om ondanks het afschrikwekkende masker emoties te kunnen spelen. Fraaie Victoriaanse sfeer, ijzersterk scenario, prachtige zwart-wit fotografie. Genomineerd voor acht Oscars, waarvan nul toegekend. Wél een César en BAFTA's, voor beste film en acteur.

In Victorian England, a surgeon named Dr. Frederick Treves sneaks into a carnival sideshow, and watches as the authorities announce plans to shut down a “Freak Show,” because it degrades the individuals who appear in it. A policeman herds the audience out of the tent before Dr. Treves has a chance to meet John Merrick, the freak known as “the elephant man.” Soon, Dr. Treves visits Mr. Bytes, the carnival barker who is the elephant man’s caretaker, and pays for a private showing. After Bytes explains that an elephant raped the freak’s mother in her fourth month of pregnancy, he pulls back the curtain. As he instructs the elephant man to stand up and turn around, Dr. Treves sees that his body is covered with bulbous, scaly tumors, and his eyes well up with tears. He pays Bytes additional money to send the elephant man to London hospital for further observation. The next day, the elephant man arrives, wearing a burlap mask that hides his face, and walks stiffly with the help of a cane. A
