Details

Rebel Without a Cause (1955) is truly a cult movie. It features James Dean in one of his final roles; he died one month before the release. Dean plays Jim, a troubled but sensitive teenager who, although rejecting his elders’ values, desperately wants to belong and have purpose in his life. Soon after his family moves to a new town, he takes on violent gang members while finding comfort with fellow troubled teens Judy (Natalie Wood) and Plato (Sal Mineo). All three lead actors met untimely deaths. Dean died in a car crash at age 24; Mineo was stabbed to death at 37; and Wood drowned amid mysterious circumstances at 43. Their deaths only added to the cultish appeal surrounding the film.
