I Done a Bad Thing | Of Mice and Men

  • 5 months ago
While speaking with Curley's wife (Sherilyn Fenn), Lennie (John Malkovich) accidently kills her while attempting to quiet her screaming.

Gary Sinese directed a sympathetic retelling of John Steinbeck's classic novel, with Sinese as the sly George and John Malkovich as the boorish, simpleminded Lennie. Set during the Depression era, the film begins with George and Lennie fleeing from a woman in a torn dress who has sent a group of ruffians to follow them out of the county. After a long bus ride and a ten-mile walk, George and Lennie arrive at a migrant farm in California's San Joaquin Valley to look for work.
