Nothing More Than Life Changing

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2013)

I'll be honest. I looked at other reviews stating how emotional and heartbreaking this true story. I disregarded such descriptions and came to start watching "The Elephant Man" for pure enjoyment. Though what I quickly realised throughout and by the end of the film was this was a piece of art, a masterpiece, that was not supposed to be made for one's own entertainment. It personally made me question the ideals of society, even though the film was during Victorian times, it made me question the curiosity and harshness of current society's in their upfront disgust to those who are different, and not considered 'normal'. This is the one film that has REALLY made me question. I urge everyone to watch this movie at some point in their life as I promise that this is an experience that will be eternal and ultimately life-changing.
