Richard Davelos, who played Dean's brother in "East of Eden", told me so many decades ago, "... I learned more about acting just watching Jimmy's movements and facial expressions than I could have in an acting class".

This documentary is so much more intense because it’s in black and white. Thank you! The tone is so James Dean! I can’t believe more people aren’t seeing this!

THE REASON THE WORD COOL WAS USED AS A DESCRIPTION OF CHARACTER WAS FOR THIS MAN, HE SET THE TEMPLATE FOR COOL WITH NO TAKERS BEFORE, DURING, OR SINCE. A TRUE ONE OFF.

I totally agree with you. When Dean died every actor tried to be like him. Even Brando was afraid of him when he was alive and he was keep asking if Dean is better than him as an actor and as a man.

So Shakespearean, his life. He “lived fast, and died hard.” A true “Rebel Without a Cause.” R.I.P, James Dean.

An enigma in his own time, a lost reckless child who had so much more than others. I lived during these times and Dean was the beginning of unrest in America. His family inherited most of what he was and is today!

Definitely no one else like him,never will be again,unique handsome actor,what an icon,after only doing 3 amazing films,will always be loved ,remembered and appreciated..Love him lots,R.I.P dear Jimmy Dean😘💕

I was a junior in high school and I was so broken-hearted, was like a little part of my died, seems funny now I'm an old lady.

I got his book by Taschen. So many years ago. Maybe from 2007 or something. He is really an exciting individual to delve onto. Truly ahead of his time.

Love this presentation - thank you for uploading - beautiful,

I was born in 42 years ago and saw his movies he was a great actor so sad did not live long i have some of his collections

I saw some of his movies on TCM l’am glad they still exist

Beautiful

Jimmy was an instinctive intellectual He went by his emotions

1:17:30 Those eyes could melt your soul. “In order to know life you must come close to death”… Poor Jimmy came too close to death. As much as he was a searcher and as much as he embraced the life around him I don’t think he ever came to terms with the lonely boy who lost his mother 😞. He never loved himself as much as others loved him

985.. great share my best friend ...!

He was fantastic No one like him he was a one off❤😢

Thanks for this I know nothing about him I wasn't born People have talked about him All these great actors seem very very deep and they've all gone 😢

jimmy was an anachronism for his time. technicolor walking in a world without pixelation even.

This is beautiful art. Made for a beautiful being. Noir and human and bright like a diamond buried in the dirt.

Какой талантливый,красивый мальчик ушёл на взлёте своей карьеры,всего 24 года жизни ему было отмерено!!! Как это нелепо и как несправедливо!! Я не верю,что его смерть -это случайная авария! Нет! Эту аварию подстроили, ему многие завидовали ,и многие желали ему смерти!! Покойся с миром,Джеймс! Ты прожил короткую, но яркую жизнь! Прошло много лет,но тебя помнят и любят ,и будут помнить и любить!

Thank you for your understanding Tatysa. It was Donald Turnupseed who pulled out in front of JD when fatal death. DT would become a millionaire overnight after his death in his enterprise of refregiration, which was the same line of work of JD's father in East of Eden. James Dean was murdered and not suicidal (through he was withdrawn). However JD did make friends and passed on his resilience to those who believed in him. God's calling is to live for everybody while theyre all living for the no tomorrow.

I wonder if James Dean had any idea of how much he was admired.

I Totally Agree with You, Anton. I'm Actually Surprised I Missed that. Thanks for letting Me Know.

The 50's were a weird time. It's sad that Dean lost his mom when he was so young and, although it's never said, obviously his dad wasn't in the picture. But this film makes it sound like growing up on a farm and befriending your nephew was somehow sinister.....

Any child you don,t have parents to love him/her they grow up broken😂

The guy was two months old and he's sitting already 🤔🤨 ????

Why do a lot of biographies start with the end? I don't understand this technique.

A very handsome man he was but he seemed like a complicated character, died far too young

Gone too soon.

He wasn't murdered. He was killed in an auto accident. The blame was placed entirely on him. He was warned by both an ex g-friend and Alec Guinness to not drive that car but he didn't listen. He was James Dean after all! A legend.

I Recently read a book. Called Wide Spread Panic. It’s about Hollywood Private Investor Fred Otash in the book. He Befriends James Dean. And James Dean would go on Stakeouts with Otash and Dean Also would carry information. Regarding other Stars personal lives and Otash would steak out their place to get juicy details lol.

Of course he could, and did. He did some comedic work in a few of the over 30 Live T.V. shows he was in in the early 50's before his three Films. Plus he was known to be hysterical IRL, at times, as told to me by a friend of his who just passed away a year ago at 89. Jimmy would have been 91 in 2022.

For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion. For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works. Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment. Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest. I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them. ECCLESIASTES 9:4-12 King James Version 😊

So much philosophy and talk but nothing practical, if we leave aside the concepts and words of others no one really knows what kind of man he was but people like rumours, they find reality monotonous and boring, in fact James Dean never even existed, he's just a well-marketed image that make money
