James Byron Dean was born in 1931 in Indiana (United States). In 1949, the year when his mother dies, he moved to California to live with his father. It was thought, might become a lawyer because he had to prepare for a specialized course of law, but change its specialization in the disciplines theater. He wanted to become an actor against everything and everyone. He was attracted to acting and began the first steps in show business in 1950, participating in a commercial spot for Pepsi Cola.
He moved to New York, managing to enter at the Actors Studio the famous school directed by Lee Strasberg. Began to participate in several TV shows. Reviews of the play "The Immoralist", aroused the interest of Hollywood.
Elia Kazan after an audition, realized it was perfect for the role of Cal in the film "East of Eden" from the best seller book by John Steinbeck. The success was immediate and amazing and Jimmy was not prepared for it. He was interested in working and improving his performance. A fact that caused irritation of the producers, was not present at the East of Eden's premiere. This makes us understand how it was contrary to the conventions.
Later, Dean worked with director Nicholas Ray in the film "Rebel Without a Cause". This film was his consecration as a symbol of a restless and rebellious generation.
The last film was "Giant" directed by George Stevens, with whom he ended his short but intense acting career. September 30, 1955 died prematurely because of an automobile accident at the end of filming.
Many are the adjectives that were given to Jimmy, introverted, restless, rebellious. He was all this combined with great artistic potential. He could leave other memorable performances, but fate has willed that his run stopped at 24 years, finally becoming a myth and the reference to the young people of later generations.
The films included in the video are:
Has anybody seen my Gal
East of Eden
Rebel without a cause
Giant
Photos of the video are accompanied by the soundtrack from the movie" East of Eden" (my favorite) while the movie scenes from the song "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi, which I think best expresses the life and the essence of James Dean.
