Is Of Mice and Men a good movie to watch?

Question

Can you tell me a quick synopsis without any spoilers in case I decide to watch it. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Of Mice and Men is a wonderful movie. My favorite version is the one with Gary Senise and John Malcovich.

It is the story of two men who travel together looking for work during the depression. One of the men, Lenny, is slow and doesn't understand that some of the things he does are bad. His friend helps him as much as he can, but sometimes they leave town one step in front of the law.

They do find a good job on a ranch, but there is a problem. The boss's son's wife.

The book is also very good. A true classic that I still read from time to time.

Enjoy!

Answer 2

Based on John Steinbeck's 1937 classic tale of two travelling companions, George and Lennie, who wander the country during the Depression, dreaming of a better life for themselves. Then, just as heaven is within their grasp, it is inevitably yanked away. The film follows Steinbeck's novel closely, exploring questions of strength, weakness, usefulness, reality and utopia, bringing Steinbeck's California vividly to life.

Answer 3

I can't add anything to Lucky19's excellent synopsis.

As for the movie, there are a couple versions of the movie.. all good to excellent...and the book is even better.
