Burgess Meredith, Lon Chaney Jr. (1939) Based on John Steinbeck's novel about the relationship between a migrant worker and his slow-witted friend. Based on the book by John Steinbeck.
Apparently this is really, really based on Steinbeck's work, as they felt the need to call it out twice in the description.
Another in the long line of "Books I once read, and am now watching the movie".
"The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft agley." Thank you Robert Burns for writing such an unintelligible set of words...
Lon Chaney Jr. makes a very good and believable Lenny.
Good movie. Sad movie. But good.
