Movies that have a dramatic scene are more attractive to watchers. In Of Mice and Men, written by John Steinbeck, the final dramatic scene is where George shoots Lennie in the head. George shoots Lennie to save Lennie from Curley. In the book, when George killed Lennie, is a more open area with greener grasses and taller weeds and bushes.
I think that throughout chapter five, both Lennie and Curley's wife feel regret through their actions, or their emotions. I think that Lennie feel regret on chapter five because of the fact that he just killed his pup, only friend, who he will no be able to pet the rabbit anymore if George saw what he did to the pup by accidentally. This quote“Why do you got to get killed? You ain’t so little as mice. I didn’t bounce you hard” (85) showed that since Lennie kills the pup that Slim gave him while he was playing too roughly with the puppy.
“Of Mice and Men” Performance Task I think that it is a good thing that George Killed Lennie because Lennie had been killing people and animals. But I think that John Steinbeck wrote the book “Of Mice and Men” because he wanted to show us/the reader how bad it was then and compare it to how bad we thought/think it is now. If we the reader(s) compare then to now we would see how bad it used to be and we think that our lives are bad but really there not that bad.
Does the story end the way you expected it to? As I was finishing each chapter, I was predicting what the next chapter would be about, my predictions weren't so similar to the book. Although some ideas were not so different but not so alike. In chapter 2, when Curley was snapping at Lennie, I thought Lennie was done for, since Curley was the boss's son. But it wasn't like that, Lennie stayed with his job.
If your best friend jumped off a bridge would you do it too? A man’s best friend is his dog and in Of Mice and Men, Lennie receives a potential best friend, his puppy. In this story, we see numerous connections between characters, for example, Candy and his old dog, how Slim is a friend to his workers, and Lennie with his puppy. These connections are also similarities. In life, you create a connection with someone and you can gain similarities with them and through this they can potentially have the same fate .
Lennie accidentally killed wife of Curley because he was frightened by her screams and he knew George would be mad at him. He also was afraid that his friend would not allow him to care for the rabbits on their dream land. Lennie ran to the hiding spot by the Salinas River where George had established would be their “safe place”. While waiting for George to arrive, Lennie imagined his Aunt Clara scolding him and a giant rabbit tormenting him. Once George arrived, Lennie anxious about what George would do to him.
When you read a book then you read another one that is completely different, sometimes you think that those two books are nothing alike. Well I thought the same thing about The Call of the Wild and Of Mice and Men. There were no parallels with these books as far as I could see. Then my teacher told us about the American Dream and I realized that Buck, George, and Lennie had a dream. That’s one of the greatest things about life: trying to achieve your own personal goal or dream--but there is also a good chance that you won’t achieve your dream.
Based off what the reader knows about Crooks from chapter four, the reader can infer that he would be the kind of person to join the NAACP. The reason for this is because he believes that African Americans do not receive the same things that whites do. In the text it states, “‘ This is just a nigger talkin’, an’ a busted-black nigger, So it don’t mean nothing, see? [...]
In the story“Of Mice and Men”, Steinback suggests that we as humans should cherish the time we have with loved ones because you never know when the last time you have with them will be. Which makes it really hard when one of them loses their lives because of how close they've grown. George and Lennie have know each other since they were kids. That’s when George realized Lennie needed help and he was the one to do it. In the beginning of the story George and Lennie got ran out of their town and were on their way to a new one.
No matter how good we act or how humane we are, due to our lack of personality and abilities, we can never achieve what we deserve. As individuals, many people do good deeds towards others every day, but nobody earns what they deserve. Everyone is a good person at heart and deserves a better life than what they have now, but due to our limitations we can’t always achieve them, similarly to Lennie and George’s situation as they struggled in the limited world in gaining money for a piece of land as “all men dream of”, “We gotta get a big stake together. I know a little place we can get cheap, but they ain’t givin’ it away” (56). In addition, no matter how good someone is or how hard they work, they will never achieve their dreams because dreams
In the novella, Of Mice and Men, the author John Steinbeck illustrates a ranch in the 1930’s during the great depression where those who fit into mainstream society run the show, and those deemed “outcasts” are rendered useless. Steinbeck depicts characters with setbacks that diminish their value in the eyes of society, and contrasts them to characters that have no difficulties conforming to the norm. Crooks, being a black man isolated by his race, and Candy, a elderly man limited by his age and missing limb are examples of Steinbeck characters that experience hardships because of the differences. The poor treatment of Crooks and Candy by the other characters, and their chronic unhappiness in a place that doesn’t value them, comments on how
Of Mice and Men is a classic everyone for sure has read, an American classic tale of close pals that are quite different, but can still find a way to work together through thick and thin for the same dream. It can be seen as a bit of a depressing book towards the end, but it’s a great read and deserves the the respect it gets. Two not too well resourced young men that go by the name of George and Lenny try to fulfill the dream of owning their own land. The two venture off into a sad heartfelt journey that requires open minded thinking to see and experience at its full potential. Lennie a big hearted giant who though isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but is simple and loves basic cute things.

Since Lennie and George travel together i think the benefits that come with that is, they have each other to there not alone in this journey like other people in the Great Depression. Secondly if one of them gets hurt or something bad happens in generally or they need help the other person can at least try to do something but if there alone they would just have to figure it out by themselves. They also solve things together and even thought there might be a smarter person in the friendship at the end of the day if they but there ideas together they come up with something better just because they worked together,which is something you cant do if your by yourself. The risks that come with this id that they might end up get in into a heated argument
