Of Mice And Men – Edited

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.

Dove Review

John Malkovich delivers a great performance in this movie. I wasn’t sure where this film was going to go, and was surprised by the ending. I couldn’t help but feel compassion for Lennie, all the while feeling great dislike for Curley (Casey Siemaszko). The movie plays off those emotions very well. There are only a couple things that may be offensive in this film. Even though it’s been edited, there is still a minute amount of objectionable material. I recommend viewing this film, but be sure to have some tissue paper nearby.
