A typical David Lynch Tale

Rating: 7/10 (28 May 2013)

This was on my watch list for long time and last weekend finally got the time to see this heart touching story.
Movie tells us the story of heavily disfigured man & his sufferings and how one man struggle to rescue this person and make a name for himself. But still few questions are left unanswered at the end of the story.
Screenplay is crisp and movie moves swiftly. There are few loopholes in the story and few character are not clearly defined e.g. Mr. Treves motive to save elephant man is not clearly defined.
Anthony Hopkins is good in surgeon role. In spite of heavy makeup John has delivered an excellent performance and his body language reflects his emotion. Watch the scene between him and the crowd on railway platform.
Overall a good watch and worth your time.
