Elephant Man

Oct 09, 1980
Londres, 1884. Le chirurgien Frederick Treves découvre un homme complètement défiguré et difforme, devenu une attraction de foire. John Merrick, «le monstre», doit son nom de Elephant Man au terrible accident que subit sa mère. Alors enceinte de quelques mois, elle est renversée par un éléphant. Impressionné par de telles difformités, le Dr. Treves achète Merrick, l'arrachant ainsi à la violence de son propriétaire, et à l'humiliation quotidienne d'être mis en spectacle. Le chirurgien pense alors que «le monstre» est un idiot congénital. Il découvre rapidement en Merrick un homme meurtri, intelligent et doté d'une grande sensibilité.

Manhandling

Jan 02, 1962
'It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it' - the popular song is particularly apposite when you lift heavy weights, as many railwaymen know to their cost. The wrong way can produce aches, pains, strains, sprains, and even slipped discs. With the help of a young weight-lifting lady (Joan Rhodes - a famous strongwoman act in the dying days of Vaudeville theatre, but also made several films and appeared in several Bob Hope shows) this film shows how to avoid all the strains and make the job easier into the bargain.
