Day 36: James Dean Collection: Rebel Without a Cause

James Dean Collection: Rebel Without A Cause






Whose Movie: Steph's
Rating: Still manages to make me cry after the hundredth time watching

Another classic.  This has to be Dean's best performance.  He packs such an emotional punch into every scene that he's in it's amazing.  The movie spoke for a generation, and it still resonates today.  No matter the decade, teens will still feel their parents just "don't get it."   All of the actors in this movie were amazing.  No matter how many times I watch this film, I am just in awe at the amount of talent packed into one film, and then remember that the three main actors all died young and tragically.  

Take a look at this video that highlights Dean's performance.  Warning: it does contain spoilers, so i fyou haven't seen the movie, you may not want to watch, unless you don't mind seeing the end of the film.


Next Up: James Dean: Giant, Four Die Hards, Dirty Dancing.
