Rebel Without a Cause

One of my favorite movies is Rebel Without a Cause. It starred Natalie and James Dean (died so young and tragically). The movie is about teenage angst. Dangerous car races, fight scenes, teenage romance. Doesn’t sound much different then today. This well made movie was brought to audiences everywhere in 1955. The movie centers around Jim Stark (James Dean) as a troubled youth who moves with his family to a new city. There he gets in trouble immediately. He then gets swept up with the wrong crowd, and a lonely rich kid named Plato (Sal Mineo). He meets Judy who’s got problems of her own. They then form their only little misfit circle. Judy and Jim also find romance. With twists and turns, action and romance. This movie is awesome!

This movie is about the bad kids of yesterday. It was a bit dark. Now why’s it here since this is everything adorable. Well… I adore this move, which gives it adorability.

Here’s a trailer for the movie:
