"More than half a century after its original release, Rebel Without A Cause remains one of the most enduring motion pictures of all time. It stars James Dean in what many consider to be his finest performance, and is powerfully directed by Nicolas Ray. Dean plays the ultimate teenage rebel and, together with Academy Award nominated costars Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo, gives voice to the postwar subculture of troubled American youth. His unforgetable performace is the highlight of a film that was a landmark achievement. Rebel Without A Cause is included in the Library of Congress' National Film Registry and is on the American Film Institute's 1998 list of the 100 Greatest American Movies of All Time." -- From case.
