John Candy, Comedic Film Star, Is Dead of a Heart Attack at 43. John Candy, the outsized comedian who brought a manic bonhomie to his starring roles in some of Hollywood's most successful comedies, including Splash, Uncle Buck and Cool Runnings, died yesterday in Mexico where he was acting in a movie. He was 43 and lived in Los Angeles.
The killing of Candy's dog was related to when George killed Lennie in several ways. First of all, both the dog and Lennie were weak, and killed as soon as they became useless to the society. Also, the dog was Candy's friend, and Lennie was George's friend. In both cases, Slim viewed the deaths as mercy killings. The last similarity was that both Candy and George felt lonely after the death of their companions. The difference was that Carlson killed the dog for selfish reasons, while George killed Lennie out of mercy. This was how the killing of the dog relates to the killing of Lennie.
