Description: "A talented, star-crossed cast gives distinctive insight into age-old themes of teenage violence and delinquency. Following his film debut in East of Eden James Dean delivers a performance that is genuine, artless, and utterly beguiling. Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo as Dean's love interest and best friend are equally good at making their performances real and heartfelt. " While the setting of malt shops and drive-in theaters may seem quaint, the themes of alienation and yearning are timeless - "I want answers now. I'm not interested in what I'll understand ten years from now." Perhaps the best teen-age drama of the century. ""
