the movie the elephant man was inaccurate because john's "owner" was actually a good man. he took care of joseph. he wasn't crule to him. that;s the biggest thing that's wrong. great movie you need to watch it.

read the book before you see the movie, its so much better. and if your ever in London you can bribe someone at kings hospital in camberwell to see his skeleton, truly incredable!
