  • 2:15 Thought they were gonna get frisky o.O

  • Sad sad movie.

  • It's so weird to see the scene where Anthony Hopkins sees the elephant man in his cell for the first time>>>>>It reminds me of the scene when Hopkins was Hanibal Lecter in HIS creepy cell in "The Silence of the Lambs". It's because both scenes were dark and had old brick walls in the background.......LOL

  • How sad. :(

  • imaginie if you had to walk around with a sack on your head cause you are too ugly to be seen in public!

  • Thats exactly what I would have done the first time....stand mouth agape and tears fall from my eyes.

  • @raveklaw I actually cried a bit myself; my mom gave me a funny look since I was "studying" :P

  • @neharani1996 this is what u need to do.

    Put your mom in chair, and say Watch whole movie !

    Then you give her big kiss because she will be crying.

  • God Hopkins was so handsome as a young man.

  • Why is he breathing so heavily?

  • @iheartslashers nervous, scared, his whole body is deformed so it interferes with his lungs and ability to breathe correctly

  • @iheartslashers part of his nasal passages are blocked.

  • even with all that knowledge, Treeves still doesn't understand what it is to be human. Something the elephant man can see right away

  • i think i know why he is called "John" in Dr treves journels, you see lots and lots of people dont give their names right away so in the grand scheme of things you either name them "john" or "jane"

    Maybe, at all?

  • Wrong ajlee35, his real name WAS Joseph. Research it.

  • That little boy helping the proprieter. What a bully.

  • his name wasn't joseph it was john. why did they change that?  HIS NAME WAS JOHN MERRICK

  • @ajlee35 His name actually WAS Joseph. They didn't change it at all. His NICKNAME was John.

  • @ajlee35 wrong it was joseph

  • Why was he crying when he saw Joseph?

  • @Mikaykay009 because he's sympathetic and joseph was being treated like shit. i would probably cry too

  • Karl pilkingtons favorite movie

  • i thought it was joseph merrick?

  • Anthony Hopkins face at 1:40 with the tear rolling down his cheek. Amazing. His performance in this IMHO is infinitely greater than Hannibal Lechter because of all the little subtleties and nuances.

  • @brianCIM The two performances are indeed fine and flawless but should not be compared. Treves was a character who found humanity in what he considered, at first, to be idiotic and subhuman (using "it" instead of "he"). Hannibal was a psychotic, and quietly sexual, deviant who acted upon horrid desires and needs. Both films are fantastic.

  • @GroovieBuff WOW! Someone who disagrees with me but does so in a respectful manner. Is this really Youtube. I appreciate and respect that!

    

  • @brianCIM No problem, my good fellow.

  • This movie made me weep when I was 7 years old. My father said it just showed I have a big heart. It still breaks my heart to see how cruel people can be to others.

  • Man. I think the only birth defect worse than this is harlequin-type icthyosis :( poor guy

  • Maybe his purpose of existence is to make us all appreciate what we DO have! Maybe we should complain less about having pimples, freckles, a lazy eye, or missing body parts...we've all got problems...but at least we can live a normal life. Some people don't have that luxury.

  • @JeniBurton213 Well..missing body parts..that can make things pretty complicated..

  • Looked like the owner guy was coming on to Hopkins.

  • @youkaisayaka i know that was wierd

  • thumbs up if u wanna just smack the living shit outta that dirty face kid

  • @ladyp1234 lol, he looks like my lil bro when he was a kid!

  • movie scared me when I was a kid.

  • @veeseee128 yeah im 13 and it still creeps the hell out of me!

  • I'm just amazed at Anthony Hopkins. You can actually SEE the tear appear in his eye. Very talented actor!

  • @JKS177 He was able to cry by thinking about his father who was sick at the time

  • Joseph Merrick RIP. Youre an inspiration to me to live life happily. You'll always be in my heart. You were treated bad by people who mocked, made fun of you and never loved you but you were always kind and loving and wise in knowledge. I hope I can find a copy of this movie on DVD cause its a masterpeice hands down!!!!

  • I'm doing an essay on this right now and I LOVE THE MOVIE :) John Merrick <3

  • @pinktopaz1994 It's Josehp...

  • Wow, i've only seen two scenes and i'm hooked. O_O

  • same here

  • 1:25 -1:41 -- one of the most amazing pieces of cinematic acting I've ever seen. Hopkins is astonishing.

  • he scares me too

  • you lack empathy. your sad

  • Cor, stinky!

  • The music in the background and the shadows spooks me out...

    But no need to be afraid, since

    The Elephant Man is a good person.

  • @helenajesstarzak im scared of him

  • @princess4life49 you poor pitiful thing. everyone fears what they dont understand, and it's in the most ugliest and disgusting things that if you rise above that stupid notion that we find ourselves some of the most unique and beautiful things.

  • Joseph Merrick will be always in my hart !

    People like him make me proud who i m human ! He was just wonderfull!

  • Poor fucker.

  • hehehe nurses are kind of scary! they tend to be really bossy!!! :D this movie rocks!

  • "We understand each other completely, my friend."

    Bytes had Treves figured out from the beginning, even enough to feel some kind of weird kinship with him. He is just Treves in a dark mirror, which us why Treves is such a good film character. Even after his "Am I a good man or a bad man?" speech, you are not really sure.

  • i'm really enjoying this film, thanks for uploading!

  • 1:31 - 1:40

    The best Expression in all Time!

  • vickytoria please be quiet. You're acting like a very pretentious cow, now stop.

  • hopkins is the man

  • power girls shut up no one gives.

  • man I would have punched that little brat in the face

  • im next. hate that kid...

  • why did he cry?

  • well since this is something he has never seen he takes pity upon his appearence and is very sorry for him and ow he is treated by the cruel care taker in his codition. Bytes was bastard.

  • Tyvm for uploading this movie!

  • at 2:48 love the way the people are all yakking on in the waiting room, and then it falls silent and the sister looks up to see whats wrong. Brilliant script this.

  • john hurt and antony hopkins, possibly the best acting duo of all time

  • Lord will we ever act like civilized humans?

  • were humans ever civilized?

    are we supposed to be?

  • Course not, in reality there is no boundry between human an animal apart from the fact that animals don't hate for no reason.

  • a squirell will kill ya soons as u looks at it

  • No it won't.

  • well clearly

    you know SHIT about wildlife

    cause squirells are the most deadly of them all

  • I live near a lot of squirrils and they just keep themselves to themselves. Besides, most of my knowlage of wildlife consists of birds.

  • lmao okay just shutup.

  • of course they are very dangerous but havent you heard of the white rabbit??? The most deadliest animal ever! (as seen in Monty Python´s The Holy Grail)

  • lol

  • i dont think they hate for any reason

  • Its like the Maury show kinda

  • The shot where Treves' eyes well with tears gets me every time. :(

  • these types of movies are sad when a normal society person has a good life and they form a partnership with someone with a disability or illness, theres just something about them.certain movies like philedelphia,green mile, leaving los vegas,this is the first of its time

  • Very good movie!! Please upload anymore part

  • This is so good movie...

  • @cptpur3x  Yeah' Just very sad and inhumane.
