-Represents being different
Response:
This entire chapter occured in Crooks' Room after Lenny snuck in. The main message portrayed in this chpter was that it was hard being different and they face difficulties that average people like us have no idea about, and nobody really wants to be different. Like when Crooks was asking Lenny if sometimes when George said somethings he had no idea what he was talking about, Lenny wouldn't have objected because he wanted to understand and wanted George to believe he understood so George would treat him normally. It also reflected on Crooks, he was black and every one else on the farm was white and they looked down at him. They didn't give a care about him, like Curley's Wife threatened to hae him hung, and she could've with almost no effort at all. The movie however didn't really show the racism as deeply, it still had some emphasis but it was more focussed on making Curley's Wife look like a victim, Sinise probably did that because the movie would atract 'tarts' (people like Curley's Wife) and also dark people because anything about racism against them was hurtful, but it was true that racism was bad back then.
