SUMMARY:SUNDAY FILM SERIES - REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE IN 35MM
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Film Series – Rebel Without a Cause in 35mm (1955)\nWith an Organ Concert Before the Filmon UCPAC’s “Biggest Little Wurlitzer” (Paul Citti\, Organist)\nSunday\, November 15\nDoors & Organ Concert: 1 PM\nFilm: 2 PM\nTickets: $5\nThanks to support from NJEDA’s A.R.T. Phase II Grant Program\n \nJoin 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). \nJames 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. \n“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. \nFor 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. \nThis 35mm presentation of “Rebel Without a Cause” is part of the I. Joseph Hyatt Classic Film Series. \n \n \n Check out the City of Rahway’s Dinner & Show Deals! \nSee all of UCPAC’s Upcoming Events
