 Set in the time of the Great Depression, a pair of best friends set out to work on a farm after losing their last job in Weed. Lennie, the big, strong, and mentally handicapped of the two was the cause of losing that job. George, the smaller but smarter and wittier of the two, and Lennie have the classic "American Dream", they just want a plot of land to call their own to work, live, and leisure on. They now work on that farm where the boss' son, Curly is out to get big men (especially ones who mess with his wife), while the Curly's wife is a tease and is interested in an extramarital affair. Lennie's physical appearance (being big), mental capabilities, and love for fuzzy and soft items and clothing causes problems between George, Lennie, and Curly.
