The Elephant Man movie vs. the play (and TV adaptation)
Posted by: bobby2 03:02 am EDT 09/04/18

Carole Shelley's death encouraged me to rewatch the TV adaptation of the play online. How does it compare to the movie with John Hurt? I'm not sure if I ever saw that. It always seemed a little sleazy of Mel Brooks and company to basically steal the momentum of the play and make their own version of the story. I think there were lawsuits.
