In one tragic moment, two lives are destroyed in this riveting, true exploration of a dark moment in the British legal system: "Let Him Have It." With those words uttered by a friend, a mentally handicapped young man shoots a policeman. But did the friend mean for him to hand over the gun or commit murder? This drama reveals the controversial postwar 1950's London murder trial that sent a mentally handicapped young man to the gallows for a murder he did not commit. Starring Christopher Eccleston ("The Others," "28 Days Later"), Academy Award-nominee and Golden Globe-winner Tom Courtenay ("The Dresser," "Dr. Zhivago") and Eileen Atkins ("Cold Mountain," "What a Girl Wants").

This is the rare story of John Merrick, the Elephant Man, enslaved by his body, set free by his dream. Trapped inside the twisted, lesion-ridden grip of a terminally disfiguring disease, Merrick triumphs over his terrible affliction. It is a story of life and the affirmation of life; timeless, tragic, uplifting and heroic. Philip Anglim's exquisite portrayal of John Merrick is all the more exceptional because he does it without elaborate make-up. As Dr. Frederick Treves (Kevin Conway) describes Merrick's deformities to a lecture hall full of medical observers, Anglim contorts his body to match Treves' narrative until, finally, he achieves Merrick's crippled U-shape.
