The story

The film tells the story of two migrant field workers in California during the Great Depression, George Milton and the mentally-challenged Lennie Small, who hope to one day attain their shared dream of settling down on their own piece of land.

Afterward, the pair are confronted by Curley, the hotheaded son of the ranch owner.
