Cinestudio presents a thrilling theater experience: the first Broadway show to be filmed (with a live audience) and broadcast by National Theater Live! The landmark revival of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men features two Broadway debuts: James Franco (127 Hours, Milk), and Chris O'Dowd (Bridesmaids, Calvary), whose heart-wrenching performance as Lennie won him the Tony Award nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Play.
Of Mice and Men is directed by Tony Award, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circles award winner Anna D. Shapiro (Broadway's August: Osage County) and features Leighton Meester (Country Strong, Gossip Girl) and Tony Award winner Jim Norton (The Seafarer).
Set during the Depression, Franco and O'Dowd play two unlikely friends drifting from job to job while holding fast to the American Dream.
"The ensemble acting is flawless. And Steinbeck's views on the human connections that are our only hope of survival in desperate times are just as relevant - even imperative - for living through our own cruel times." Marilyn Stasio, Variety
150 min, with one intermission.
