George

In the book, George in a way made fun and complain about Lennie a lot while in the movie, it never seemed like he was really mad at Lennie. After reading the book, I imagined George being a lot smaller. In the book i pictured George being older and not so young but in the movie I was shocked because I never thought George was so handsome

Lennie

In the movie the actor played Lennie well. He makes you feel kind of attached to Lennie like the author did in the book. Lennie was what I expected he would be in the movie. Accept in the movie, I felt more attached and Lennie seemed much nicer and sweeter. He was a really good actor because he made us feel sympathetic for him and he seemed so innocent, even when he made bad decisions.

Candy

In the book it told us that candy would rub is stump of a "hand" on his face and In the movie never really saw him rub it on his face . Also I pictured candy to look rough and older because in the book they make him sound a lot older and this beat up swamper but in the movie he looks like a clean, healthy, old man.

Curley's Wife

In the movie, Curley's wife is in a lot more scenes than we were told about in the book. Her character does a really good job at flirting and demanding that she needs attention. You could tell she was not happy with Curley either. In the book , you didn't get to experience her demanding character such as when she would tell them to stop what their doing and talk to her

Crooks

In the movie, we were able to go into his room and see how he was discriminated against. They also had put him in a few more scenes like with the barn with George. I didn't expect his crooked back to be as bad as they had it in the movie. It really helped make him stand out compared to everyone and show the discrimination against blacks

Curley

Curley is actually not shown as much in the movie as I thought I read about him in the book. Also he seemed a lot more hateful in the movie than in the book. I personally think that Curley was too small of a guy in the movie. He was not intimidating at all when he confronted Lennie and seemed helpless when Lennie had a hold of his hand.

Slim and Ranch Workers

In the end of the movie, it doesn't show the guys ever finding Lennie dead and George. whereas in the book, Slim and the guys found George and they come up and question George and Slim took him back and tried to care for him.
