Character Review

OF Mice and Men, an American classic written by John Steinbeck. It portrays the adventure of two friends, George Milton and Lennie Smalls trying to make it through the Great depression. There were a few misinterpretations of characters in the movie compared to the book. George Milton, a small, fiesty, and angry man in the book Of Mice and Men. Yet in the movie Of Mice and Men, George, was respresented as more of a softy than he was in the book. In the book, George would go on and on about how dumb Lennie was, yet in the movie he would only make one comment about his intelligence and stop himself before he said another. George was not the only character that was misinterpreted by the movie. Lennie Smalls, described as a colossal human being yet, John Malkovich played him in the movie. John isn't that large of a man. In my opinion the director should have had a larger actor play the role of Lennie. The movie had its flaw's, but overall it was quite good.
