So the chances are in year 10 you've read Of Mice and Men... then watched the film...
Well, in my class we're only on page 103 and the saddest bit hasn't happened but I watched he movie anyway and I'm so unsure of what to think. It's a really good movie but its made me feel so weird.
I understand why George shot Lennie but it's just so moving and alien... anyway, what were your thoughts on the film (or book but this is the wrong forum for that)?
I'd give it a 8.5/10

We only read the book, and I wasn't a fan personally. I wasn't really interested by the plot, didn't really capture me.

I am studying it atm. I enjoyed it a lot.
The film is really quite sad at the ending.
Steinbeck is a brilliant writer and he sets the scene of everything really well too.

I think I know the book word for word...
Although It's a great film, it's one of those films where they couldn't have picked anyone else to play the parts... It wouldn't have been right...

It was OK the first 2 times I had to read it but because I read it with school we tore it to shreds like a million times and it got so boring I never want anything to do with it ever again :(

The film didn't have anything on the book, especially the part where George shoots Lennie (WHERE'S THE HALLUCINATIONS, MAN?!)
