  • Trivia
    He described the makeup and prosthetics for The Elephant Man (1980) as "one of the hardest pictures I had to do". It took seven hours each day to put the makeup on John Hurt, and another two to take it off again. "Everything was so precise. There were 14 pieces, not including the head, and they had to be applied exactly, every day for continuity. You couldn't afford to make a mistake.".
