John Steinbeck

Of Mice and Men -- John Malkovich, Gary Sinise and Sherilyn Fenn shine in this contemporary remake of the beloved classic about a nomadic farm worker who looks after his dimwitted, gentle-giant friend.

East of Eden -- Based on the classic John Steinbeck novel, this Academy Award-winning film features the starring debut of movie idol and legend James Dean ('Rebel Without A Cause,' 'Giant') in this riveting drama revolving around two brothers' love for the same woman.

A dozen top stars and five famed directors join forces to present filmed versions of the best stories of O. Henry, all narrated by John Steinbeck. O. Henry's short stories, rich with irony and humor, created a lasting image of everyday people in America at the turn of the 20th century. The five stories chosen for O. Henry's Full House are The Clarion Call, The Last Leaf, Ransom of the Red Chief, The Gift of the Magi and The Cop and the Anthem. A beautiful score along with dozens of the finest screenwriters, set designers and technicians, make this a treasure to discover.

The classic Steinbeck novel comes to life in this thoughtful adaptation, directed by Gary Sinise: two Depression-era drifters are trying to make a better life when tragedy sends them on the run.
