James Dean was only 24 years old at the time of his unexpected death on September 30, 1955. He had appeared publicly in only one major Hollywood role before this accident occurred, in 1954's East of Eden, with two more starring roles, including in the iconic Rebel Without a Cause, having been filmed and set to be released in the near future. The car crash that killed the young actor would go on to become historical news, and would propel him into a star status the likes of which the media had never seen.

isn't it crazy how he only did three movies and he's one of the most famous actors of classic Hollywood
Goosebumps
He was being typecast,"the
Misunderstood young man"in
His three movies,up and coming
Movie,somebody up there likes me"
Another miss understood young man,sadly it never became....
He had that very special, rare, very few people have. Something you cant define, but you see it when it appears. Others who had that in my opinion, was Marylin Monroe and
Audrey Hepburn.
A good example is the contest over the years, which girl is the most look a like Marylin Monroe. They winning girl can be very close in the look. But always lack that special something the original star had.
Watch his TV plays-far more Jimmy than the hollywood he hated.
@@austinstratman1809 where can I watch some of those/what do you recommend?
It says it all,that nearly seventy years after his premature death,that people still make programmes,watch his films,buy books,posters,photos of james,discuss his death,sexuality,and even his acting styles.This man is a total icon,a legend in his very own league.I fall in love with this man whenever i see him.
Me too. My favorite trip was getting to see the farm in Indiana and the museum.
Sad that he died so young. He was a gifted actor. I have to wonder where his career would've gone had he lived.
When I watch movie from his Era I often wonder would this actor be as much as heartthrob if James Dean would of still been alive. Several amazing actors from his era
@@charlottemcgill8289 I agree.
I think he would have competed successfully with Brando for roles. I think some of the roles that went to Brando would have gone to him. Brando felt Dean had copied his acting style that's probably why Brando didn't like him.
James Dean would have been amazing he was so beautiful and talented and so great for a young man love him forever ❤️
He would have definitely been a top 10 actor of all time.
Every time I see him, I just think River Phoenix would have played him in the movie about his short life.Their mannerisms are exactly alike.
Lol literally just thought this .. I watched little Nikita with River Phoenix yesterday,and watched rebel without a cause and east of eden today. They def have parallels, so scary.
@@patriceofmind6096 me too!
I thought the same thing!
I don't understand why people have to know absolutely everything about Hollywood celebrities. I suppose people like to just feel needed and that's why they want to identify
@@donaldgon8019 Not everything, it’s just that they were both so unique and mysterious it made them interesting. I just don’t want either one of them to ever be forgotten.
He received the speeding ticket on California highway 99 in Bakersfield. He signed his last autograph in my hometown.
He was a complex person, but I enjoyed his short career 💜 RIP Jimmy🙏
@Keith Stevens Quite a few had, in Arts....
Who cares if he was gay or not he was a icon
Many do, its hard for Straights to idolise one of those.
I could care less if he was gay. I stood at a Whole Foods once while I thought that a George Michael look a like stood in front of me. I loved George Michael and ran into him many times at the Whole Foods. He was so fine. Beautiful inside and out.
It's important for queer representation. I wish more men were able to embrace themselves like that.
James Dean is an icon in so many ways

To think, if he didn't get the speeding ticket, he would of missed the truck he collided with by a good 15 or 20 minutes.
that totally blows my mind 😯😮damn that cop for taking so long.
Butterfly effect
I believe our tendencies and habits truly catch up to us. If he missed the truck he collided with, he might have collided another time, due to his reputed fast driving, his risk-taking behavior and his choice of such a risky vehicle...
트럭이 아니고 포드자동차
@@edmarklowelldelossantos4952 A walk on the wild side!
You can’t really compare him to other actors. He was totally unique like Garbo or Callas. A certain magic about him
yes exactly, no one comes close
Callas who?? Marie Callas???
@cornelius washington I know who she is. Why would anybody compare an opera singer to James Dean??
jamesdeane305
Because these people are truly unique and not like any one else in their field.@@crystalship9900
You forgot to mention that Sir Alec Guinness warned Dean not to get into that car as he sensed something evil. You can hear Guinness himself say that in an interview!
The Force is Strong in Sir Alec Guinness! 🕯
Yes, also Eartha Kitt said "she didn't feel his spirit". Whatever that means? She probably also felt the foreboding destruction that awaited him. Oh if he only rode in the station wagon and had the Porsche towed on back of the vehicle..
Yes apparently warning him he'd be dead within a week.. He was dead exactly a week later.
Elizabeth Taylor said Dean confessed he had been 'molested by his minister' when he was 11.
Also Eartha Kitt did the same thing. She actually rode in the car with him.
I'm 75 & remember as a child, James Dean in smaller t.v. roles before he 'hit it big' in the movies! Even though his legend has continued to grow through the decades, I don't believe that he would have had a long movie career, had he lived! His looks were already starting to fade at 24, due to his lifestyle!
However, with his youthful death, he will always remain "forever young" in his fan's hearts! R.I.P. James!
Yup. Dean is "stuck" at a young age, forever.
James Dean was my Hero in my teen years.. I saw all his movies and a memorial documentary in Kampala, Uganda in those years.. a true great person..
James Dean’s family life and troubles shaped him for sure. He was larger than life and an iconic original.
How does this happen, sometimes he doesn’t even look comfortable in his skin 🥺🥺🥺🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
He was a homosexual....
Shapes a few folks, shaped Charles Manson who had it worst, he was special, not sure he was guilty.
@@wildestcowboy2668 what proof u have .don't trust the media
jamesdeane305
James Dean was brilliant. I was so upset about his death.. May he rest in peace. ❤
What's your favorite James Dean movie, Frances?
@@FactsVerse lol
I love him in East of Eden. He does so well in it that it looks real and not just acting
Yeah that scene with his father and the bean field profit money is literally gut wrenching to watch-his pain was real and raw. Legend.
His cousin Marcus said he wasn't acting, that was the real Jimmy.
jamesdeane305
My ex-wife lives onky a few miles from where Dean met his demise....and I've visited his memorial several times in passing. Even though I've heard his name all of my life, I have never seen any of his movies.
You should watch all three films of him to know why
Only three movies? Amazingly unforgettable!
I know right?! Thanks for watching, Mendy!
I was fortunate enough after my own mother died when I was 14 I made a trip to Fairmont Indiana where Mr and Mrs Marcus Winslow allowed me to visit their home and treated me so wonderful by letting me stay in Jimmy's room for the night this was 1969 I never forgot their kindness and named my own son Marcus after that wonderful man who understood what I needed after the loss of my mother God bless them and James Dean
wow!
Wow. Never thought I'd hear the word "ennui" in a TH-cam video. That's an extra 10 points to you, Sir.
He was perfect for that time. We could feel the searching feeling he emitted. I wasn't close to my parents.
Unbelievable that a traffic stop contributed to the timing of this Collision.
but if he had heeded the traffic cop's warning.....? James Dean was the king
Great job, I didn't know how complex he was. Thanks!
I wonder about the police officer who gave the ticket; what a thrill to meet James Dean, then ...
Gosh, being a teenager now, I love “Rebel Without a Cause” I never knew him, but I miss James Dean. He was so talented and gorgeous 😍❤️
There is a story that the ambulance carrying Dean was in an accident on the way to the hospital. It's said that he had hit his head in that accident while in the ambulance.
Interesting
He died in Porsche.
Nope, broke my neck on impact.
Bs
have you seen the pics from accident wheere it looks like he was looking up?not sure if he passed in the ambulance or at scene
Loved him in 'Giant'. His performance in 'East of Eden', was spot on! He was good at his job. Period!
I knew everything except his mom died when he was nine, there was another passenger in the car, and Brando didn't particularly like him.
Brando did not like many people in Hollywood. His closest friend was Wally Cox. There were rumors about them and I believe Marlon had Wallys ashes after he died and wouldn’t give them back to Wally’s wife.
they had a spicy romance
@@shirleypittsley2099 thats the reason why hollywood keeps on chasing him brando just dont give a crap
I don't necessarily think that's true I thought Marlon Brando and James Dean where lovers?
@@mimidee4974many people have claimed that and many biographies of James Dean support that claim, but Marlon denied it in his autobiography, since both were bisexual MAYBE they messed around and James took it too seriously? but we’ll never really know.
Using modern techniques used by Police and Insurance companies it was found Dean's car was traveling at the correct speed. The car he hit drove in front of him, causing the accident. The mistake was caused by the Sun in the approaching car driver's eyes. So he did take the speeding ticket warning. It was an accident, but not Dean's fault. Although it took 50 years to prove using modern techniques.
I have looked up the specs of both vehicles and the Ford that Turnspeed was driving was double the weight of Dean's Porsche and that was a big factor in the crash
The sun was in Dean's eyes, not the approaching drivers. Sun rises in the east and sets in the west, therefore the sun was behind the approaching driver. That driver could not see the Porsche because it was such a low car and blended in to the pavement. Then he paused while in Jimmy's lane, directly facing him head on, stunned by what he saw and trying to process how best to react...but he took a split second too long.
@@Nikes62 correct, that road was designed terribly at the time. I know that crash ruined his life so I don’t wanna pile more hate Donald.. but… he really really must’ve sucked at driving
@@Nikes62 yeah it’s unfortunate that so many roads go unfixed just because there’s been no accident… yet. His death should’ve been enough for them to take a big look at their roads, not just that one. If Jimmy was driving he probably could’ve survived. It would be a much different world and much different Hollywood landscape if he survived that. I still place a lot of that on Donald though, he had plenty of time to react
jamesdeane305
Rest In Peace James dean
From what i`ve read James ean wasn`t speeding at the time of his death, he didn`t collide with another car , the car turned in front of Dean which was Turnupseeds fault . He`ll stop, he`s gotta see us ....thinking this is what Deans mechanic said to police right before the wreck.
Yep. A truck pulled out in front of him. He wasn’t at fault for the wreck. I bet nothing happened to the A-hole in the truck.
The true story is so mixed up already. Nobody has definite facts.
It was an accident. Deans car was going up an incline and did not see Turnipseed turning in front of him till it was too late. Turnipseed did not see him either. One of horrible coincidences and no one was charged. Dean had already received s speeding ticket so we dont know if he had gone slower the result would not be so deadly
I was 15 when he died and I was heart broken …
You guys still alive???
@@mr.clapemcheeks2016😂😂😂 she’s bitter asl too read her other comments.
I wish he was born on our generation. He seems such a nice, sweet, beautiful heart..
3 films are enough fr me
Greatest actor I've ever seen
yes. fearless
Better than anybody else.
You didn't say anything that had already been said 100 times. What darkness? You really didn't mention any that I heard.
Wow it's really amazing video. I really loved it.
We love James Dean ♥️
" What are we waiting for? Let's bring em back home. "
Fathers were given a major pass to simply “ship off” their children at any time the mother was not available. Sad really. I love my children even without their mother
? Now not allowed? He did not connect with his father, was happy with his uncle, So had it better than Many, even with their father.... who had cause to rebel.
There are NO equivalent film stars to James Dean. Totally unique.
"Take up dentistry?" lol Like its knitting or something.
I think back then Dr's and Dentists learned as they go. Today I think Dentists have to have more schooling than MD
my bf is a bit of a James Dean, he took his own tooth out with pliers.......its pretty basic, dentistry, don't be fooled by huge fancy power tools lol.
@@DLCMORRIS Is he also a closet homosexual?
@@charlottemcgill8289 They still had dental schools then with academic admission standards. Its not something one would "take up" on a whim like a hobby.

Happy Birthday Jimmy Dean.....legend forever...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥀🌹
Rebel Without a Cause is my favorite James Dean movie,I can watch it again and again
James Dean was one of the best actors I have seen in my whole life . I have seen all his three films. Rebel without a cause , east of Eden and giant !!!! He is the only person I have seen who as done a crying emotional scene that really did look real. And it was hard to believe he was just acting. If James Dean wud have lived he wud have gone straight to the top with is acting and wud have been very rich. !!!! I don't care what this man did in his private life or how many women and men he slept with. As far as I'm concerned there will never be another actor that cud ever touch James Dean .!!!! A beautiful laid back handsome man.😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hes the best actor ive ever seen.His improvisations sets him apart from the rest.Looks, style, acting prowess, screen presence and magnetism there will never be another like him ever again.
I wonder what James would have become if he never died..
@CyberWeeb monument mythos
I think Jimmy Dean just had a fascination with Brando because he was America’s greatest actor. Remember, Brando literally became a hero to people and was greatly admired. I can even see Jimmy Dean copying Brando’s mannerisms. I’m sure a lot of actors were copying Brando which wasn’t a wise thing to do but Dean was a natural talent and was able to get away with it along with his screen presence. He was a talented actor for sure and one of the best within his time, in my opinion.
I really liked James Dean and all of his movies. Rip James Dean
According to David Dalton the author of "
James Dean: The Mutant King" James Dean was the
Abraham Lincoln of Teenagers for all time: he freed them all and gave them a voice!
So, what exactly was The Dark Side of James Dean No One Talks About? I didn’t hear anything that isn’t widely known.
Never saw his movies but I heard songs about him so he must've made an impact
He did 👍🏼
He only made 3 movies. I would definitely check them out! They are amazing! East of Eden, Rebel Without a Cause, and Giant 🦋
@@inspiredfandoms3462 He made lots of TV movies as well, they're awesome too
MANY have talked about this dark side. There is no escape from these discussions, they are everywhere.
Interesting, thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see?
Why do we care if he was gay? He was a good actor
Hi, there, the only ones who know if he was or wasn't are the ones who were peaking through his windows when he was with somebody else. He only registered as a homosexual in order to get out of going to the Korean Conflict.
Neither one of those things surprised me about him. I was a teenager then.
I envy you! I wish I was a teenager then.
What was it like back then? Do you have any stories?
Is it crazy that a few years ago, for halloween, I dressed up as James Dean? I did my hair like his and i wore jeans and a white shirt.
I mon was born in 58 in Portland Ja and remember the whole island in luv with Mr Dean. Like many reggae greats gone 2soon
Dere are many wit da name "Dean" in da Islands Mon. Especially in da Bahama's Mon Iree Mon, No problem.
I thought his career was boosted by Elias Kazan giving him best roles of his career i am amazed you didn't mention him intentionally!!!?
James Franco played him. Did a good job.
He starred in one of my favorite movies-“Giant.” He was gorgeous and talented.
Saw on ebay the figure is worth a good over 100 quid x
Crazy how he only had 3 movies and he had been dead for more than 60 years but people still talk about him
3 movies released on theaters, because he has lots of TV movies as well, he was getting known by the audience even before his debut in cinema
Thats why hes like no other in Hollywood.He left a sudden and lasting impact like no one else.
He had Charisma, but I think He did not love a life.🙋 It is very sad, that this man died too young. 🌸🌸🌸🌸 A Genie🌼🌼🌼🌼 I will look, if River Phoenix is His,, Twin ''. Rest in Peace both. ❤️❤️
I find it so fascinating that most of us probably weren't even a Twinkle, maybe even our parents were a Twinkle & HE seemed to in some way impact our lives. He was so ahead of his time. If only he listened to Alec GUINNESS. Guinness told Dean the week before that if Dean drove that car that he'd be dead in a week & he was. It's crazy how people have premonitions like that. Dean would probably be so astounded if he saw the race cars of today & also knew of all the women in love with him! RIP James Dean one of the world's True Icons. 🙏🙏💞💞💕💕
I believe that, sadly, he would have killed himself in one way or another before too long had he not died in the car crash.
Hi, there, maybe that's true. sometimes, a person's employment tells you a little bit about him/her. He was a race car driver. He didn't need to go into that career for the money. He had to have loved speed.
He had bipolar for sure....undiagnosed.
I love james dean so much
He doesn't care.
The speeding ticket, may be if he slowed down, he'd would have lived longer and made more great movie's. I love James Dean
Create a time machine immediately!!
Amen!!! I want to go back!!
I saw the movie, is that good enough?...lol
Great talent that was gone too soon. I read that he had agreed to star as Rocky Graziano in the 1956 film Somebody Up There Likes Me right before his death. A role that Paul Newman ended up playing. I'm not sure how true this was or if he had even signed on for the movie before his death, but I heard this in another documentary video about James Dean. Kinda wonder if it was true.
It is true.
Yes, he was going to play Billy the kid as well in Left Handed Gun, a role that also ended up with Newman
3 movies is NOT a "handful", it's a "pinch"... & a mighty insignificant one at that.
he was a good actor, ive seen one of his movies
I just googled James Dean a few minutes ago, and I read several exposes about Dean having flings, not only with Marlon Brando, but with Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Steve McQueen, Rock Hudson, Lee Strasberg, and Martin Landau! :O
Sick boy
I guess Mick Jagger was too young.
Marilyn Monroe was his number one As far as the men they just wanted him to be him Jimmy was unique and way out of their reach
I must say back in the day I was all for dean democracy. Now though things are different
Ayy
I'm a fan of Dean's for his mystique more than anything else. It's only "Rebel" that I've ever enjoyed him in. I've seen him in all his movies and most of his early TV appearances and he took method acting to a ridiculous level. All the old senior actors thought he was crazy and they weren't far from the truth. He was definitely at the right place at the right time. His rebellious-teen manner coincided perfectly with the rock and roll culture. His death cemented his legendary status. It would've been the same for Brando, but being Brando lived on, people had time to see how bizarre he was and pretty much wrote him off in his later years. It would've been the same for Dean.
Lovely and thanks u ✌🏻🙏🏻💐🌹💖💖💖

Facts
No duh!
James Dean was such a gifted actor and has had an undiandiable impact on acting today. Also, I had originally cane here cuz of the Sleeping With Sirens song "If I'm James Dean Your Audrey Hepburn." Because I wanted to know who they were. For context it's a love song. THE TITLE IS SO MISLEADING. But I mean, atleast I learned a few things out of it.
Man, he looks so much like James Franco (a slightly younger version), the same kind of sex appeal! No wonder Franco portrayed Dean in a movie.
A symilar face structure. But I don't think James Franco has the same charisma.
Franco isn’t as effortless as dean
Anna
James Franco looks like James Dean!
James Franco is garbage
He deserved better 🥺
He was so intense in East of Eden.
Dean's outfit in Rebel Without A Cause was worn by Philip J Fry in the TV show Futurama.
R.I.P. 🙏♥️
You did not comment on the subtle, but sure, signs of a homoerotic relationship between Dean and his colleagues-star, Sal Mineo.
@@bylinesandbygones I think it's generally known he had sex with many Hollywood stars ....female and male
@@anderander5662 Rumors, i also think he was bi, but there's no proof apart from people's stories
He was a straight hot blooded man And if he Really like that female she could turn him on quicker than lightning can strike🔥🔥🔥 To me that was his nature😜
@@idawilliams3528 you don’t know that though lmao things I here about him, he has more than than a reputation for that.
One of Dean's girlfriends before his death, remember Jerry Seinfeld's Mother in the 2nd greatest Sitcom of All Time (Seinfeld 1990-1998), his mother on the show, in real life she dated James Dean briefly in early 1950's ..... Confirmed fact
That woman was a beard not a real girlfriend.
Someone said to james why do u take such risks he responded by saying deaths among us and I’d like to conquer it
The Ford sedan collided with James Dean's Porsche in a complete broadside. 22 year old Donald Turnupseed was completely to blame for the accident. More BS about James Dean.
Donald passed away with the truth
Wasn’t a complete broadside at all. Dean’s Porsche hit the left front corner of the Ford. Dean’s small, light Porsche went airborne and was a crumpled wreck. The American cars of that time were full size, heavy & thick ‘Detroit Iron’, with lots of headroom. Consequently the only damage to the Ford stayed well in front of the driver’s seat and Turnupseed wasn’t really injured. He just got bounced around and shook up a little. He hitchhiked home to the Central Valley not needing any medical attention. The damage to the Ford showed it had to be barely out into an intended 30 degree leftward turn into NE bound Route 41 when the Porsche hit it. Very likely if Dean wasn’t going so fast, he would have been able to avoid the Ford by slowing down or going into the far right of the road and around it. The triangular intersection has been relocated, reconfigured, and widened since 1955, making conclusions based on observations or measurements of the current intersection opinion rather than fact.
His childhood details seem to be confused. The last story said nothing about him being left with his aunt and uncle. They also said his father had a bull frog farm that didn't work out.
Everyone reading this comment should be inspired to start-up **THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BULLFROG FARM**, and then make it happen!...(ROFL)
Absolutely the best actor that ever lived!❤️
Behave yourself...it's on record that crash was the other drivers fault...enough of the dark side, he was a charismatic, gifted and magical actor with a few challenges like most of us. R.I.P Genius
It is not "on record that crash was the other drivers fault." In fact, it is well known that at the time Dean was found to be at fault because he was allegedly going around 90 MPH. There were witnesses, and this was the verdict at the time. This has been disputed in subsequent years, but there is no contemporary record stating that Dean was not at fault. The excessive speeding was a regular thing with him, not just some speed trap he got caught in one time earlier that day.
@@briteness exactly what I wanted to say
He was gorgeous and talented and unique 🙏🏽✝️❤️💐
He was not a rebel just to be a rebel for the sake of rebelling. He just did not want to participate in things he did not believe in. Hence the rebel. No one has ever come close to what he had because you cannot imitate someone and be authentic, especially with the depth Dean had. What we saw from Dean was I fear just scratching the surface of his talent. Even if he had lived, we may not have seen much more from him because he hated Hollywood. New York theater was another story.
If Dean had not been stopped for a traffic ticket he would’ve never gotten in that accident he would’ve never been at that spot an accident is perfect timing
It's called "fate"
Unrattled by a speeding ticket just hours before his death tells me James Dean was a “rebel “.
Was the “dark side” he got a speeding ticket 2 hours before he died? I’m confused 🤔
Dude I’ve had a crush on 3 damn Jimmy’s in this lifetime thus far James is #1 tho such a interesting specimen
Franco and Gandolfini? Ha
Thanks God Jimmy was a MAN. ... YOU are the specimen.
"rumors circulating about Brando`s sexuality" . really ? Dean yes .
Hell, yes! It was rumored that he hustled a bit early on, and was not above granting sexual favors to jumpstart his career. Not saying it is true, but I have read that more than once. He had a very close relationship with Wally Cox and he kept Cox' ashes so that their ashes could be mingled and scattered together in the end. This last bit is definitely true..
@@abushenob , interesting . maybe that`s where the rumor started , someone mentioned "Brando likes Cox" . i get it now . . . . just joking , thank you Dan .
He was in " I Remember Mama" TV show for a short time replacing Dick Van Patten as Nils.
AREN'T WE ALL A LITTLE DARK Sometimes..Dean was Unique Not Many Are like him...And He Lived LIFE on the Wild side...
Fortuneteller - You`ll become an icon in Hollywood after you star 3 movies.
James Dean - 3 movies is more than enough, after all, nobody lives forever.
he liked taking chances - = you can't match a tank with an aluminum can - the result you can plainly see - i 'll do a portrait of him now - rip J D
He would throw caution to the wind I don't care what the verdict was he had just received a speeding ticket in Bakersfield 2 hours before the crash then travelled to Cholame in 15mins Cholame is 30 miles from Blackwell's Corner 30 miles in 15 mins equals 120 MPH. His hobby was car racing speed was a natural instinct for Jimmy.

Why there is no mention about his relation with italian actress Pier Angeli ?
Nor the liaisons with Marlon Brando...
Well, he showed off with her motocycle at Pier's wedding church the legend says, they were lovefriends but relation broke up. You're right, that is not mention nor why he rejected to get drafted...
@@robertoponce8077 She was in the movie Somebody up there likes me
