Beautiful, heart warming, tragic...

Rating: 10/10 (21 April 2001)

I have seen this film about 20 times. I love it, it is one of the best films ever made. I always cry at the final scene where John removes the pillows from the bed and quietly makes his exit from this world. It is probably the most beautiful and touching scene I've ever seen in a film. And John Hurt and Anthony Hopkins are excellent. The Elephant Man displays the cruelty of man but also his ability to love. This film is a must see, a 10/10.
