British actor John Hurt has been giving memorable performances in films for over 45 years. My favorite of his many roles I have seen, however, is that of John Merrick, The Elephant Man. Hurt's skill as an actor is flawless in this role, and is a beautiful tribute to the sad case of Merrick. I think the real David Merrick would have appreciated Hurt's portrayal of him.
