Review of the Elephant Man

The Elephant Man by David Lynch is a great film. Although being a black and white movie, you can enjoy and learn from watching it. The Elephant man being John Merrick a 21year old man who looks odd from others is a great person, though people are not good to him. By this film we can see how John Merrick goes through tough things, David Lynch puts the film dramatic at times. Mr. Bytes would have John Merrick in a freak show, an embarrassing place to be at. He would have John Merrick standing for people could see him. Mr.Bytes treated John Merrick horrible, but he ended up going to the London Hospital. Dr.Frederick Treves was the man who took John Merrick to the London Hospital. It was a good cause but not every part of that was good. It was after into the movie when Dr.Treves really got know and like John Merrick, they became Friends. This film reminds me of everyday life, on how people "Judge a book by its cover" meaning they judge just by the physical looks. People get disgusted and look at John Merrick weird when I believe it shouldn't be like that because just like John Merrick said "I am a human being" he was a human and shouldn't be treated different.

My Name is John Merrick

Today through my ride on the boat to England, I had an accident when I was at the station in England. The accident occur when I dropped a little girl because 3 boys were following me. Soon after I dropped her, I left her there and ran away because many people saw. I felt scared they wanted to see or talk to me. Soon after all the men followed me but I kept trying to get away. I ended up in the guys restroom, where there was no where else to go. They all just stared and just stared at me! But, then I said "I am not an elephant! I am not an animal! I am a human being! I am a man." Policemen then came in and got me and took me to my home the hospital. Dr. Frederick Treves my friend came in and gave me hug. A nice warm hug that made me happy to be back. Felt very welcome by my friend!

Welcome To My Nightmare

One night, a random night I had a nightmare that I was sleeping and something horrible happened to me. I am scared to get a tumor in my body or a sickness like cancer. In my nightmare, I woke up with a great pain in my ankle, a pain that I couldn't even move my leg. The pain in my ankle was big I tried to see what it was, I was able to see what it was. A big tumor! It was a big chunk of skin popping out of my ankle. In my nightmare when I saw the tumor I started to shout "MOM!" "DAD!" but their was no one, just me and the big tumor. Immediately I began to cry, I was crying like if one of my family members had died. The nightmare felt short but at the same time long but next thing you know after everything happened, for some reason I woke up in real life and was still crying. Now a days talking about it gives me the chills because that's a thing I am scared to get a tumor or cancer and in that nightmare I lived it and felt how horrible it was.
