OF MICE AND MEN


 "OF MICE AND MEN" --- (1992) --- 

MY THOUGHTS:
Although I appreciate the 1939 version of this film, I find that this version is my favorite. I think that John Malkovich turns in an amazing performance, that is quite nuanced and touching. The film, overall, is well-done and Gary Sinise did a wonderful job producing and directing it. I would highly recommened it and feel it is more than worth the watch!

SYNOPSIS:

However, when George and Lennie are handed an opportunity to own part of the ranch, Lennie's fascination with the beautiful woman threatens to destroy their dreams."
