YOU DONT WANT TO HEAR THIS ANYWHERE ELSE!

Terrific entertainment! Gary Sinise did a fantastic job recreating the American classical novel "Of Mice and Men," written by John Steinbeck. George and Lennie, two travelling companions, travelling the country side in search of work during the Great Depression. Never in my life have I seen such close comparison between a novel and a movie. I was especially pleased to see how closely Sinise related himself as an actor to the character George Milton. A small man, easily tempered, but carries with him a good heart. Sinise does a absolute outstanding job portraying his protective personality towards his relationship with Lennie Small. Another exceedingly well example of Sinise efforts is shown during Lennie's death. Although this scene wasn't exactly like the novel I believe, Lennie's death was handled with great maturely. A simple well thought out understanding of what one must do in the face of reality. A friendship that can forever be remembered. Sinise welcomed this film whole heartedly and pleased my expectations! This film can be enjoyed by all. This film is a must see!

" Your completely oblivious!"

"Weather is supposed to get better by Saturday, perfect for the wedding," recited Gord.

"Hello, are you even listening to me?" huffed Sara, "sometimes I have absolutely no idea what goes through that head of yours!"

"Hmmm?"


Sara fixed the wrinkles in her dress and began to adjust her seat. Maintaining a bland expression on her face, Sara spoke, "Gord, we have been sitting on this train for three hours now, and we haven't even said 5 words to each other."

"I just have nothing to say."

"Nothing to say!" anger grew inside Sara with each reply her husband gave her. She took a long breath in a presented a question she would of hoped she would never have to ask, "What's wrong with us Gord?"

Gord put down the morning paper and faced Sara. The patch of skin under his eyes had begun to sink in over the last few months, and he had become very tiredly looking. Gord slowly took off his glasses. "There's someone else."

Sara was no where near ready for such a reply. Her eyes teared up, and for the first time in her life she had nothing to say.

"Her name is Julie," George spoke without warning.

With in that moment Sara got up from her seat and spoke the last 4 words she would ever say to her husband, " I want a divorce."
