One addition, the men weren't in town when Curley's wife is killed, they were outside playing a rather loud game of horseshoes. All else seems accurate and very helpful, thanks!
I would say that Lennie symbolizes George’s hope for his own ranch. A dream that he keep telling himself over and over again. After Lennie kills the woman, George’s hope runs away to a safe place. However, George has to find it and kill it, before the others, because it is all over. He was so hopeful on the american dream that it got him killed.
Um I took an all nighter for a final on this book and its in an hour and imma use this because I didn't read it, thanks:)
@@maneynatalie9091 Good to hear! Wish u the best and let us hear how they reacted to my (your) analysis and how it went 😉

The ending of the book almost made me cry XC
It was same for me
The ending of the book MADE me cry
alright softie
I would add a couple of points, the most important being that this is essentially a Cane and Able story examaning the question 'am I my brother's keeper'. Also, you state that the story line with Curly's dog foreshadows the fate of the migrant worker but even more so it foreshadows the ending with George and Lenny (remember that someone else shot Curly's dog for him and it was a major regret, as he felt it was something a man should have done himself)
It was actually Candy's dog, not Curly's.
I would also have discrimination as a theme, people are ageist to candy, ableist to Lennie, sexist to women and racist to crooks. That's a lot
Good thing ur not a professor loll
@@clipscript5395 crazy part is that is how a lot of professors think about things now a days. Everything is sexist, homophobic, and racist. Once obviously straight characters are now secretly gay for some reason, and everything is a micro aggression to some subcategory of humanity. For example, He held the door open for a woman because he doesn't think she can do it herself. He is a mansplaining white male sexist bigot obviously. Umm ma'am can I just read and enjoy a great novel without all the liberal indoctrination to be offended by everything.
That's implied in the theme of loneliness. Those characters are lonely due to the discrimination they faced.
Thanks a lot for making this video I thought I will fail but passed with your help.
Are you reading the `About the author` on the cover of the book?
I also think that the dog's death has something to do with lennie's death like candy kept saying that he had to shoot the dog himself so george maybe felt that he shouldn't make the same mistake and let the others kill his friend lennie.
foreshadowing
very helpful, thank you very much !
Awesome video my guy
This was helpful.. Thank you
This analysis is lackluster. It is a foundation for those of you who are searching for a quick analysis on reading Of Mice and Men; however, for those of us who are actually seeking an in-depth analysis for knowledge are being blue balled. What about the fact that the town they reference is called Soledad which in Spanish means loneliness? Additionally, the theme's aren't elaborated on. For you to actually create a theme statement that is vivified it must be an individual idea extrapolated from the reading. For example, the apprehension of loneliness could be detrimental to one's sanity. See these are themes that are actually vivified throughout the book. So please for your next analysis try to be more involved for those of us that are seeking for an in-depth analysis. Sorry if I seem pugnacious of any sort, I'm trying to advocate for more profundity.
They have more videos on themes of this book, try spark bote videos
Hi I’m Spanish, Soledad can mean many things: it can be used as a persons name, county name(as shown) or loneliness 😀
Read the book yourself and don't use UA-cam videos as a crutch
thank you
Man whats with the hand actions u really be like 🙌🤝🤲☝️✋🖐
it'd be even more awkward if they were just by his side the whole time lol
We need to remember Lennie's childlike nature and, what nowadays would be considered learning needs. This weaves through the story.
Good job 👍
this helped with my assessment so thanks so muchh
No it didn’t you, this barely touches on the themes
lazy
For my exam is day after😂🤣thanks you for this video 👍
The story begins at 2:05
Good jop 👍👍
Spider-Man No Way Home is a masterpiece
I’ve got a test on this book today. Haven’t read a page. Let’s see if this helps, wish me luck bros
Update: aced it 😎
I have the test today I also haven't read a page
@@willieparsons2711 wish I had a test.. I've got to orally analyse it..
Lennie is basically plot device.
Curley’s wife never flirts with anyone
o 1 when exactly and how?
She openly said "so you're the machine that broke my husband's wrist. I like machines so I'll see you later". She flirts with Lennie all the time.
@@rafaelnadal5892 This doesn't happen
I exactly think so. The ranch hands discriminate her....
Uh did you read the book…?
fucking hate this book, can't wait to be done with it
😴 such a boring homework
Fr
Lenny was creepy af George should have ditched him in chapter 1.
I sure am glad you didn't write this book.
@@MiDuWay yes it would have been a short story.
Thank you very helpful!
