Lack of details
9 December 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Some of the most important details in the book were lacking in the film.

Aspects of the book which really help you to understand each character were not shown in the film.

After George shoots Lennie the film ends however a major piece of dialogue from the book is missed out.

The film needs the dialogue between George and Slim as it helps the audience to understand exactly why George shot Lennie and how there was no other way but to end his life.

Also the opening is not as descriptive and full of dialogue as Steinbeck made it in the book and takes some of the key moments away from the film.

Overall too much was missed out from this film, although it was a great movie i think not enough was included
