The Elephant Man  7.30pm at The Cube
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Sell out warning! Lynch flips the true story of John Merrick into a daringly emotive and morbid parable of unrequited humanity for the ultimate Victorian Other. It’s perhaps the most potent ray of tender sentimentality in the nightmare king’s oeuvre - not to be missed from your period of mourning!"

"Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

David Lynch's first studio film, a beautiful and compassionate retelling of the life of 19th-century "freak" John Merrick.

"Has the power and the dream logic of a silent film... pulls you into a serene, contemplative amazement."
Pauline Kael, The New Yorker
