1957 www.amazon.com thefilmarchived.blogspot.com James Byron Dean (February 8, 1931 -- September 30, 1955) was an American film actor. He is a cultural icon best embodied in the title of his most celebrated film, Rebel Without a Cause (1955), in which he starred as troubled Los Angeles teenager Jim Stark. The other two roles that defined his stardom were as loner Cal Trask in East of Eden (1955), and as the surly farmer Jett Rink in Giant (1956). Dean's enduring fame and popularity rests on only these three films, his entire output being in starring roles. His death in a car crash at an early age cemented his legendary status. He was the first actor to receive a posthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Actor and remains the only person to have two posthumous acting nominations. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Dean the 18th best male movie star on their AFI's 100 Years...100 Stars list. Dean performed in episodes of such early 1950s television shows as Kraft Television Theatre, Robert Montgomery Presents, Danger, and General Electric Theater. One early role, for the CBS series Omnibus the episode "Glory in the Flower" saw Dean portraying the same type of disaffected youth he would later immortalize in Rebel Without a Cause. (This summer 1953 program was also notable for featuring the song "Crazy Man, Crazy", one of the first dramatic TV programs to feature rock and roll music.) Positive reviews for Dean's 1954 theatrical role as "Bachir", a pandering North ...

American teenagers at the time of Dean's major films identified with Dean and the roles he played, especially in Rebel Without A Cause: the typical teenager, caught where no one, not even his peers, can understand him. Joe Hyams says that Dean was "one of the rare stars, like Rock Hudson and Montgomery Clift, whom both men and women find sexy." According to Marjorie Garber, this quality is "the undefinable extra something that makes a star." Dean's iconic appeal has been attributed to the public's need for someone to stand up for the disenfranchised young of the era, and to the air of ...

Joe Hyams says that Dean was "one of the rare stars, like Rock Hudson and Montgomery Clift, whom both men and women find sexy." According to Marjorie Garber, this quality is "the undefinable extra something that makes a star." Dean's iconic appeal has been attributed to the public's need for someone to stand up for the disenfranchised young of the era, and to the air of androgyny that he projected onscreen. Dean's "loving tenderness towards the besotted Sal Mineo in Rebel Without a Cause continues to touch and excite gay audiences by its honesty. The Gay Times Readers' Awards cited him as the male gay icon of all time." Dean is mentioned or featured in various songs, which include titles such as "Allure" by Jay-Z, "American Boy" by Chris Isaak, "American Pie" by Don McLean, "A Young Man is Gone" by The Beach Boys, "Bla bla bla (Blah Blah Blah)" by Perfect, "Chciałbym umrzeć jak James Dean (lit.

Responses are welcome. www.youtube.com *Quick note:* I am well aware that agnosticism is a epistemic position and not a middle ground between atheism and theism. The term "sexual agnosticism" was coined by me only as an analogy to compare two different ideas. Sorry if that caused any problems. Rough script in case anything was unclear: Some people like Marjorie Garber, professor at Harvard, would like to say that most people, if not everyone is bisexual, and I dont agree with that. I think its confusing, vague, and changes definitions. I think bisexuality, like any other sexual preference involves awareness that one finds emotional and physical attraction towards both genders to different degrees of course. I think thats the only criterion that we use to determine if youre bisexual as well as any other form of preference, and I say this because people, especially teenagers, have a habit of misidentifying themselves as bisexuals due to outside factors. Like if they fooled around a bit that one time or thought about being with someone of the same sex or if theyre just pretending to be bisexual. Like, theres this misconception, whether its true in all cases or not, that bisexuals are more open, or versatile, and promiscuous. And I think someone in a very socially naïve environment, like a school, sees some social advantages in calling oneself bisexual even if theyre not. I think that label has a very exotic connotation to a lot of heterosexuals, and its easy, too. The word ...
