Details
In the movie Möss och människor (1992), two companions named George and Lennie journey through the country during the Great Depression. Their shared dream is to escape their current circumstances and secure a brighter future for themselves. However, their aspirations are constantly thwarted, leaving them in a perpetual cycle of hope and disappointment.
Based on John Steinbeck's novel, the film closely follows the original storyline and delves into thought-provoking themes such as strength, weakness, usefulness, reality, and the pursuit of utopia. It vividly portrays the Californian setting envisioned by Steinbeck.
As George and Lennie continue their journey, their relationship is tested by their contrasting personalities. George, a responsible and practical man, looks out for Lennie, who has limited mental capabilities but compensates with immense physical strength. Together, they navigate a volatile world filled with transient laborers, exploitative bosses, and unattainable dreams.
While their partnership provides companionship and support, their ultimate goal seems to slip through their fingers every time they approach it. As setbacks and challenges become more frequent, the characters must confront the harsh realities of their existence and the limitations of their dreams.
Möss och människor offers a poignant portrayal of the human condition during a time of deep economic uncertainty. It invites viewers to ponder the complexities of hope, power dynamics, and the pursuit of happiness amidst adversity.
