Join us for a 35mm screening of 1955’s iconic film “Rebel Without a Cause” starring James Dean, Natalie Wood (Academy Award Nominee, Best Supporting Actress), and Sal Mineo (Academy Award Nominee, Best Supporting Actor).
James Dean gives a legendary performance as Jim Stark, a troubled young man searching for acceptance and understanding from his warring parents and the kids at school who bully him, but his ‘typical’ teenage struggles turn tragic when an act of bravado turns deadly.
“Rebel Without a Cause” became a defining portrait of teenage life in postwar America—and helped establish James Dean as one of Hollywood’s most enduring stars.
For those who remember the 1950s, this is a chance to revisit the music, fashions, cars, and atmosphere of an era that helped shape American popular culture. For those seeing the film for the first time, it offers a fascinating look at how Hollywood portrayed youth, family, and the generation gap more than 70 years ago.
This 35mm presentation of “Rebel Without a Cause” is part of the I. Joseph Hyatt Classic Film Series.
