My sixth brief conversation with the ghost of John Merrick

Merrick: “I AM NOT AN ANIMAL!”

Me: “Uh huh.  So tell me, what did you think about John Hurt’s performance?”

Merrick: “I AM A HUMAN BEING!”

Me: “Because I think he really captured your essence, don’t you?”

Merrick: “I AM NOT AN ANIMAL!”

Me: “Of course, a lot of that was probably Lynch’s direction.  And the makeup.”

Merrick: “I AM A HUMAN BEING!”

Me: “…And that moist, slurpy noise he made whenever he delivered a line…”

    This kind of post requires audio!

    Why did they pick Hurt to play him when Ron Jeremy would have given the role so much more joy?
