Über diesen Film

John Steinbeck's classic 1937 novel is given new life by director Gary Sinise who also plays the part of George Milton, a laborer who has thrown in his lot with a hulking giant, Lennie Small (John Malkovich), whose brain failed to develop with his body. George has become Lennie's protector. Although retarded, Lennie is a willing, strong worker, and between them they expect to earn enough money to buy their own small piece of land. Lennie's strength is also his curse. He has a childlike attachment to small animals, but often crushes them to death. And women, to Lennie, are like soft, small and gentle animals. The tragedy that will emerge from this fact will involve an exploited and misused woman (Sherilyn Fenn).

I couldn't stand this one bit. I hated that they had that thanos guy from fortnite fight ice age baby but only so Shrek could start singing despacito whilst beating both their asses at once. Overall i found it a terrible experience and would not recommend to anyone unless you're into BDSM.

This is a school film to coincide with most HS educational reading requirements. I would take "Old Yeller" or "A Raisin in the Sun" and perhaps "The Great Gatsby" over this one. Damn you Lenny!!

This movie although a little crude and hard to follow because of language, really protrade a classic novel and a bright light. It takes what was once a dark dreary novel, and turns it into a easy to follow film.
