of mice and men
After reading the book, and then watching the movie, I feel that the book left more of an impression on me. I was disappointed in the portrayal of Lenny’s character in the movie. In the book, I felt that Lenny was just very simple minded, but in the movie version, Lenny seems to be seriously retarded. This also changed the relationship between him and George, making George out to be a babysitter to Lenny, instead of a close friend watching out for him.
