George dreams of saving enough money for a farm of his own, a dream shared by the mentally disabled giant Lennie, who merely wants to “tend the rabbits.” Unfortunately, George has never been able to stay at a job very long, thanks to the trouble often caused by Lennie’s feeble-mindedness. Still, George is fiercely loyal to Lennie and would never think of deserting him. Hired by rancher Oscar O’Shea, George and Lennie run afoul of the boss’ belligerent son Curley.
