4K RESTORATION | Dr. Frederic Treves (Anthony Hopkins) discovers Joseph (John) Merrick (John Hurt) in a sideshow. Born with a congenital disorder, Merrick uses his disfigurement to earn a living as the “Elephant Man.” Treves brings Merrick into his home, discovering that his rough exterior hides a refined soul, and that Merrick can teach the stodgy British upper class of the time a lesson about dignity.
Nominated for 8 Academy Awards, including Best Picture (and Lynch for Director and Co-Writer), and now celebrating its 45th anniversary, this 4K digital projection is a 4K restoration from the original camera negative, overseen by David Lynch.
