See the immortal James Dean on the big screen as the original rebellious teen in Nicholas Ray's classic 1955 film Rebel Without a Cause. Dean's iconic role as Jim Stark personifies American's cultural image of the high school loner with his slicked-back hair, pouting red lips and slouching in a white T-shirt and blue jeans. In the film, Dean's character bonds with classmates played by Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo (who both earned Academy Award nominations for their supporting roles) to battle school bullies. Learn More
