Amazon.co.uk Review
When people think of James Dean, they probably think first of the troubled teen from Rebel Without a Cause: nervous, volatile, soulful, a kid lost in a world that does not understand him. Made between his only other starring roles, in East of Eden and Giant, Rebel sums up the jangly, alienated image of Dean, but also happens to be one of the key films of the 1950s. Director Nicholas Ray takes a strikingly sympathetic look at the teenagers standing outside the white-picket-fence 50s dream of America: juvenile delinquent (that's what they called them then) Jim Stark (Dean), fast-girl Judy (Natalie Wood), lost-boy Plato (Sal Mineo), slick hot-rodder Buzz (Corey Allen). At the time, it was unusual for a movie to endorse the point of view of teenagers, but Ray and screenwriter Stewart Stern captured the youthful angst that was erupting at the same time in rock 'n' roll. Dean is heartbreaking, following the method-acting style of Marlon Brando but staking out a nakedly emotional honesty of his own. Going too fast, in every way, he was killed in a car crash on September 30, 1955, a month before Rebel opened. He was no longer an actor, but an icon, and Rebel is a lasting monument. --Robert Horton, Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic James Dean, 16 Oct 2004
By Kona (Emerald City) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: Rebel Without A Cause [VHS] [1956] (VHS Tape)
The unique charisma and talent of James Dean make Rebel Without A Cause an absolute must-see for all film buffs. Dean stars as Jim, a lonely and misunderstood teenager whose trouble-making has forced his family to move to a new neighborhood. On his first day, Jim alienates a gang of boys, gets a girlfriend (Natalie Wood), befriends a neurotic outcast (Sal Mineo), and takes part in a "chicky-run" over a cliff.

Every minute of this film has become beloved by its fans, thanks to Dean, who owned the screen in his famous white tee shirt, red jacket, and jeans. 50s teens thought Dean spoke for them and they idolized him. He still deserves his icon status, because of the unforgettable character he created. When he cried to his parents, "You're tearing me apart!" you believed it was real. He was the epitome of the cool rebel.

Almost fifty years later, the character created by James Dean still rings true. They say a thing of beauty is a joy forever. That applies both to James Dean and this movie. A must-see classic film.

5.0 out of 5 stars It is never out of date, 3 Dec 2004
Having a visual insight into a culture at a particular point in time is an excellent way of understanding what was happening. This film, because of the iconic status of James Dean, does just this. The film gives an informed view of the changing nature of families and young people in the 1950s. It expresses the desire of young people to change society without them knowing what they wanted the new society to be like, but recognising that a new order needed to be established. This film signals the development of Youth Culture as a force of change and gives an insight into the changing relationships within families that were being experienced at the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jimmy Dean, the rebel of his era!, 1 Jan 2001
By gfaenger@gmx.net (Temporarily Skopje/FYROM, usually Greece + Germany) - See all my reviews
On of the best movies out of the fifties. What a pity that he had to die that young. The movie itself makes my eyes watery whenever I watch it. I believe that many youngsters find themselves in the person Jimmy plays. A must see for all generations.
