I wouldn't consider the exchange between the minister was actually an affair. It's abuse.

He didn't have an "affair" with his pastor/mentor. That man took advantage of a young James Dean who was very vulnerable AND had lost his beloved mother. That's criminal. Today, that man would be in jail. That said, Dean was a brilliant actor. At least we have 3 iconic films that he starred in. Such a tragic loss.

He was a child who was terribly ABUSED. Humans don’t recover from childhood sexual abuse.

I was thinking about James Dean just the other day . I will always remember that guy . He was 'one in a million . Those of us who were there during Dean's rise to quick fame will will never forget the empact his death had on us all . His picture hangs on my wall as I write this . The picture where he's getting gas for his Porch that took his life .

Exactly. I remember being a teenager back in the mid 80s and he was an icon for that alternative culture. Nowadays he's a distant memory and the under 30 crowd feel no connection to him

The Ford driver thought the Porsche was farther down the road due to the low profile, small size, light silver color. Crossing his path without adequate clearance. The lightweight/high-strength body did not have the mass to deflect the much larger Ford Customliner. Dean was at 0 fault, under the speed limit.

James Dean's absent father is the "bad guy" in James' life! Rejecting his son completely after the death of James' mother certainly affected James. All of James' efforts to get back into his father 's life was rejected wholeheartedly and we will never know the extent his father's 2nd wife played in this! Sadly, his father got his son's money after James died!

Seduced...affair...no. took advantage and abused. Great actor. Who cares abt his sexuality, except back then it probably caused torture bc of the gossip crap.

James Byron Dean (February 8, 1931

This is great! Thank you !!

The ‘relationship’ or close contact happened when JD was 17 from the end of 1947 to the beginning of 1949. Deweerd was 32,

There is no proof about anything written about jimmy he is not here to defend him self let him rest in peace love you forever my beloved James ❤️🙏

A child molester pastor created a troubled teen. How sad.

Nice look at this legends life.

The other driver whose name was Donald Turnupseed was at fault. After turning into Dean’s lane he stopped his car there in panic and rammed his foot onto the brake. This made this made impact force much worse.

Oh yes baby ...Jimmy

He had a ruff time no wonder he was messed up

"Troubled" by his sexuality. Well YES, especially even nearly 70 years after his death people are still making it an issue. Who cares? No one should care what another person does with their crotch. Natalie Wood, who attracted Gay men as did Elizabeth Taylor was smitten, and clingy with Dean during the making of "Rebel Without A Cause" . To shake her, he would arrange for Wood to drop in just as he would be in an intimate relationship with Sal Mineo. Taylor was flat out on stage saying he was gay as was Montgomery Cliff, and Rock Hudson, all 3 of Taylor's friends. This poster always seems to go out of his way to spin stories on alleged Gay men in Hollywood to make them Bi or even Straight. He seems to have a serious problem with it. And, I have a serious problem with him, unsubing!

Taylor wasn't in Rebel; lol. Dean and Marlon Brando had a BDSM sex affair where Jimmy was the receiver, and he fell in love with Marlon. TRUTH.

Describing what happened to Dean at age 11 as an 'affair' is insane. I'm unfollowing this.

Everything about him is mesmorizing.

Even at age 11, I bet Dean was quite an operator.

How long ago has he been dead? Does anything going to change a About him. Make him less of an Icon, I seriously doubt it so I don't understand The reasons to try dragging crap up for Nothing

Well Tallulah and Frances were both bi's

What's the go with Paedophilia being labelled a "relationship", how does an 11 year old have a relationship with an adult?

This is nothing but slanderous defamatory gossip. Dean was an intellectual living in a rural town. His relationship with Deweerd was simply someone to talk to about things other than pig farming. There is no evidence of any sexual encounter, it's all just gossip. He was neither gay nor bi, he had girlfriends, not boyfriends - although some lied about this AFTER his death.

Thank you! This made me very gay!

Quite honestly, I don’t think that much as his acting. Each to their own.

Affair! He was groomed and abused.

Since I didn’t know him I won’t comment on his love life or his life but I don’t think he was that great an actor. Giant is a good movie but he came across as spoiled, petulant , surly and jealous.
