  • What a sweet, beautiful man he was. Breaks my heart that he was treated so badly by that awful man.

  • poor man;(

  • This is an amazing, touching story..Truly.

  • @frozensecondpkers Yes sir, He was real alright. This film is an adaption of the book Sir Frederick Treves wrote himself with the same name. :) Very interesting stuff.

  • @frozensecondpkers Absolutely. :) This story in fact very true indeed. It depends what you mean though...where you referring of "actor" actually being deformed? or if the character existed in real life? 

  • What a sweetheart.

  • @frozensecondpkers based on a true story so yes.

  • Thank you so much for uploading this entire film. You rock my socks off... (wait, I'm not wearing any) ahah!

  • 1 person was the carnival guy.

  • 6:17 ..should add a mute annotation there lol

  • Comment removed

  • poor john. Why is it You must suffer for factors beyond your control

  • @usnate1

    I'm Sure he is geting his as we speak, but if you can find him tell him that he is a cruel and condecending (very unladilike word) for me.

  • The carnival guy needs to have his ass kicked. Just once I would LOVE to get 10 min. behind a closed door with him....oh please? Can I shove that cane sideways up his...

  • That head nurse shouldn't be a nurse at all....number one trait you must have in that profession is PATIENCE!!! What a bitch.

  • @MistyAngel1990 Idk. It is difficult to talk because of the deformities on his lips, but it might not be painful. Just difficult

  • this is so sad....

    ...i dont think i can stop crying right now...

  • guy with the cigar.

    stop being a douche and leave john Merrick alone >.<

  • this reminds me a lot like frankeinstien... poor john

  • I feel so bad for the guy. Reminds me of the Hunchback of Notre Dame :(

  • Thanks for the mute cues! 

  • Anthony Hopkins handsome.♥

  • @Lushdarkness Indeed.

  • Awwwww when he talks it is just...aww.

    and Anthony Hopkins.. WOW he is amazing in this film!

  • Poor John. The older nurse making his bed saying how she "really" feels. "Don't you waste your time with him...it's like talking to a brick wall" My God woman! He can still hear you.

  • thanks man for the movie, you're the man

  • Screaming Banshees remind me of the White Trash Sarah Palin Crowd!

    Very Trashy!

  • he's amaizing!

  • "What in bleeding hell happened to ya?"

    If I was Joseph (his real name is Joesph Merrick, not John) , I'd say, "That's my line"

    1:19 Yipe, these women look like zombies

  • this looks like an old black and white movie better than an other

  • Why did John remain so silent even after he met Treve? He played the being dumb for a reason, but what is that reason.

  • @orlandobabe Probably fear of people.

  • @hjb103055 Oh bless his heart.

  • @orlandobabe Fear of a new environment?

  • lol thanks for posting the vid. enjoying the movie <3

  • @MistyAngel1990 he suffered bronchitis as well

  • dat dude who supposedly owns JOhn is probably gay.. there've been hints in the movie, btw he looks likee he smells likee asshole.

  • his mom was rumored to have been rped by a elephant i dont think thats possible

  • @privateloui1958 she was not raped. she was taking a walk while she was pregnant and she got in the way of one and fell over.

  • The screaming banshees freaked the hell outta me..............

  • This is the first time I've seen this movie and I must say that John Hurt did an amazing job playing John Merrick. When he was walking into the hospital earlier, the way he was breathing and the limp, it was incredible, it seemed so real. I find it hard to believe that the man who played whimsical characters like Quentin Crisp and Caligula was able to portray John Merrick so well. It really adds to the realism and emotion of the film.

    Just wanted to say that. Hope your enjoying the movie too <3

  • man i love anthony hopkins hes sucha good actor

  • @MistyAngel1990 it doesnt hurt for him to talk, he just cant open half of his mouth.

  • Yes, it was lik that is the U.K. at that horrific time in our history..

    Indeed a difficult watch...this is ...if one is one ounce human..tears my be shed and right so...

  • was john merrik this intelligent in real life?

  • @omgiitzjjaclyn well he wasn't a complete idiot...and this is based on his life so I'd say yes...the poor man...he didn't deserve the scornful looks or to be thought of as an idiot without being given the chance....

  • :*( sad movie

  • "dont waist your time with him" what a bitch nurse

  • yeah

    but its waste not "waist"

  • A dog in the streets would fare better with you. That''s telling him Treeves

  • "i want my man back" lol

  • Incredible scene on the stairwell--three of the best actors I've ever seen. Freddie Jones is outstanding.

  • " we must treat him with kindness and patience" i love that line"

    holy opera ghosts! what is the uncle doing in the hospital, * kicks him out *

  • At 6:24 I just thought "Goddammit just kick this guy down the stairs"! >: (

    Anyway thank you for uploading this movie.

  • "Hallo my name is John Marrick"

    He is so sweet.

  • i love this movie !

  • u cant speak? well duh i wish they would have already invented technology where ur in a wheel chair and the comp talks poor guy

  • He says you CAN speak.

  • You are a fucking idiot.

  • well sorry if i dont please you

  • great movies, the story is sad, but `Mr. Merrick `is better in heaven then here.

  • true.... if heaven exists he definetly deserves to be there........cuz im sure his days here on earth were like bein in Hell........
