- <p>By Michael Quinn

- <p> It has more of the feel of a timeless folktale retold than
- of the work of a modern novelist--and now Of Mice and Men,
- John Steinbeck's homey tragedy of two Depression-era laborers,
- is about to be told once again in a movie due for release in
- the fall. This version stars John Malkovich as the simpleminded
- giant Lennie and Twin Peaks' Sherilyn Fenn as his unintended
- victim. "She's like a terribly sad angel in this role," says
- director and co-star Gary Sinise. "Sherilyn plays against just
- being a sexy, beautiful girl. There's something always behind
- how she uses her sexuality. It's a form of communication for a
- desperately lonely woman."
