James Dean. Jung verstorben. Ein großer Name.
Ich frage mich gerade was hängengeblieben ist von seinem Rebell.

"Jim Dean and Elvis were the spokesmen for an entire generation. When I was in acting school in New York, years ago, there was a saying that if Marlon Brando changed the way people acted, then James Dean changed the way people lived. He was the greatest actor who ever lived. He was simply a genius." - Martin Sheen

Robert, einer meiner Nachbarn meint, was diesen Film zu einem Klassiker gemacht hat ist vermutlich James Dean selbst und die Tatsache, dass dies einer der ersten Filme über die manchmal sehr schwierigen Jahre der Jugend ist.

"All of us were touched by Jimmy, and he was touched by greatness." - Natalie Wood

"The damaged but beautiful soul of our time." - Andy Warhol

"...His very brief career, violent death and highly publicized funeral transformed James Dean into a cult object of apparently timeless fascination."

"Every time I go to Europe, I remember that James Dean never saw Europe, but yet I see his face everywhere. There's James Dean, Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe - windows of the Champs Elysees, discos in the south of Spain, restaurants in Sweden, t-shirts in Moscow. My life was confused and disoriented for years by his passing. My sense of destiny destroyed - the great films he would have directed, the great performances he would have given, the great humanitarian he would have become, and yet, he's the greatest actor and star I have ever known." - Dennis Hopper
