John Malkovich's role in the film "Of Mice and Men" compares to Bobo's role in "A Raisin in the Sun." John playes a role as a sweet man who is slow and is not aware of the harm he may be causing. Bobo is slow as well and has no set goals. Both John and Bobo have a partner who they tell every little thing that goes on in their life. In the film, John tells George when he breaks the woman's neck and in the play, Bobo tells Walter that Willy had left with all the money he had to buy a liquor store. John is a perfect actor for Bobo's role.
Great! Remember, however, that Bobo is African-American, not white.
