- I'm so tired:
1. I'm literally gay. I'm not calling it gay shit to be genuinely derogatory
2. this is just a dumb compilation on the internet. don't take it too seriously
3. i try to respond to all comment threads. genuinely rude or mean-spirited comments will be deleted when I notice them, so threads might end up missing some context
4. 90% of the comments are already arguing or making assertions about the actors' sexualities so please only comment about that if you have something NEW to add about it
5. I'm a linguistics major! i love reading comments in people's native languages! don't be shy if English isn't your native language!
that's all, I'm not your dad and i can't control what you comment but this is my channel and I CAN control what comments remain and what comments get deleted
"is he a friend of yours?"
" *gay panic* "
lmaooooooooo yes
He reminds me a lot of Cyrus from Andi Mack
Do you know that the director for this movie actually prescribes James Dean and Sal (plato) to spend time together, because the director knew that Sal is gay, and James is Bi. The director wanted to have a good chemistry between the actors, James and Sal eventually fell for each other and was in a relationship. This was confirmed by the director himself. upon knowing that the two actors fell for one another, He actually wanted to put a scene where James and Plato Kiss each other, but the headstudio rejected the idea as it is too controversial.
" You wanna come home with me"!!!!!!!!!!
farhan rafi thank you for the interesting information! Can’t you advise where can I read or watch about it?
"Not ready to come out yet?"
*gay panicking noises*
plato internally: wait shit does he know
@@JolynHenry the biggest question he asks
I caught that line in the movie too.
The many double entendres is uncanny 😱😱😱
Too relatable
Apparently in the mansion scene, Dean told Mineo to "look at me the way I look at Natalie (Judy)" and now im suffering from severe heart palpitations.

And I oop-
And I oop x2
What time?

If a movie has 18+ minutes of gay stuff it’s just a gay movie 🎥 👬
eatsgrass 😂😂 For real
rebel with a homosexual agenda tbh
was this considered gay during this era though or just natural common antics. I mean was there supposed to be a gay subtext or just friendship
@@roostersideburns3440 well they were both gay for each other IRL
@@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233 holy fuck really?
This is the most useful edit of Rebel Without a Cause that I've seen
it definitely makes it easier to write an essay about queer topics in this film
Jolyn Henry thank you , now i don't have to stress trough the movie when the only important parts are already neatly compiled here
No joke, when we were studying this film in class, our professor sent us a link to this video, as a learning material. He called it "a visual essay" on the queer subtext in the film.
@@Daydreamer-vb4ed dead serious?????????
@@JolynHenry Yes, dead serious.
I always thought Natalie Wood’s character was just an excuse to make the movie less gay than it should
I'm sure they wrote the script and then read it and were like Wait Shit this is really gay!! quick, throw a female love interest in there
You know how some TV shows will have that one character that's gay. It's exactly like that, but opposite. Lol
I love Natalie Wood but her character here was not it.
or to comment about the repression she faces at home, which is why she ends up being attracted to boys that are dangerous (her first boyfriend, james dean).
No, during the test screens it was pretty obvious that all three of them had really good chemistry with each other. Nothing wrong with a polyamory
Ah.. repressed homosexuality... Hollywood's glittery underbelly.
Lol. You want to see repressed homosexuality? Just look at male relationships today and how afraid they are of being real with each other. If you’re straight, you got nothing to hide
Honey I'm so sorry I misconstrued what you were saying, I thought you were the homophobe, I'm a fellow queen, native American. The aspersions toward homosexualty is fallible within itself. Closeted men love to hide. I'm gay but I will be careful to make sure I'll be safe.
Wow this thread turned into an emotional rollercoaster.
It was probably better when it wasn't as out and proud like it is now. I'm gay and even I get tired of the LGBT stuff, they've made being gay really boring.

"It's alright now. It's over, the world ended." That quote really resonated with me and I don't know why.

Reading this in quarantine is so funny
Because we know that even when this age ends, we’ll still be standing, life will go on regardless of the disaster. As a Christian that’s what I know to be true.
I don't care about the gay part only thing I care about I take James Dean veryyyyyyyyy seriously 😳 he's my idol my hero big fan .the greatest actors of alllllllllll time. 👍😎 James Dean was cool before the word cool was invented.😎😎😎
Sal Mineo, who plays Plato, said that Plato was the first ever portrayal of a gay teenager in film. So in other words, they WERE more than just roommates if you catch my drift...
oh my god they were roommates......
It's obviously clear that both had great affection for each other on an off the screen. One must be blind not to see this.

@@JolynHenry there was a kiss scripted???
@@pamelahoney874 I highly doubt it.
we stan two (2) bisexual kings
Sal Mineo was gay in real life. Plato was meant to be seen as gay without having to say it.
James... I mean, look at him. Look at him act. He _obviously_ got to screw around, being freaking James Dean.
Pluto was not bisexual.
He was clearly gay (as far as we know anyway).
@@SirEriol Didn't Mineo say he was openly bisexual?

@@MrPOKER725 he was quite open about him being bi but okayyy
Jolyn Henry it’s a great channel love the content
@@CitizenKane380 A lot of his friends and colleagues say he was at least bi, Liz Taylor who starred alongside him in the movie giant, said he was gay.
I thought Sal Mineo was bi, not gay?
@@PKMNFan4664 It says that he identified as Bi in an interview in the early 70's, but that he only dated men in the last few years of his life. either way he was certainly not straight.
I have an old friend who is gay. Great personality. Traditionally handsome. Our families spent summers together when we were growing up. I felt bad that I never asked if he was in a relationship, so in our twenties I did finally and he kind of half smiled and said being gay isn't like that, it's a lot of hookups and really lonely. It was heartbreaking. This compilation reminded me of that.
I have been with my partner for over 46 years now - Never lonely
All the men I've attracted in my life have been "straight" and it's heart breaking cuz they see in denial most of the time
being gay is a lot of hookups because gay men still feel ashamed of who they are and they choose to hookup anonymously.. but its lonely either way. hookups or not!
That's great to hear.@@michaelsweenie-lane359

For its time it was one of the most tragic movies...in real life at the time young Sal Mineo fell in love with James Dean,who he was quite fond of.

I know James Dean is known for his looks, but I seriously never in my life seen a twenty something year old with that aged of a face. He looks like a forty year old man. He must've started smoking cigarettes at age three.
Really?? I don't think he looks that old. He was only 24
@@jamesalvarado3961 I know how old he was. It's just that look, I'm 28, and I work around people older than me, and none of them have faces like that. I've met people who resembled him but they were all in their forties or older. His face looks like a catchers mitt. Maybe it's the diet of today or the fact that we know smoking isn't healthy. I don't know. His face is rough. He looked almost like John Wayne.
Look up Hank William's Sr and how old he looked when he passed in his late 20s.
NIIIIQQ yeah he looked really old
Now he dont look that old. Maybe mid 20s or late

“Stop forcing your sexuality onto James Dean”
James Dean: *literally said he didn’t put himself into a sexual box and openly stated to basically be sexually fluid*
👀👀👀
Are you quoting yourself? And what does that quote mean?
Dummy
No what he said was he had never put is sexual fluid in anybody's sexual box.
Really? What's the actual quote? Because I very much doubt anyone on the 1950's would have used the term 'sexually fluid'.
My boy James Dean was a repressed bi and he exudes so much energy here BOI
I don't think he was that repressed...

James Dean keeps trying to give his guy his jacket
" Here.. It's warm... Like me"

he'd rather just wrap himself around Plato tbh

James Dean was such a fascinating person, I have never heard of him before yesterday, ive read two biographies of him today haha
farhan rafi Source your statements..
blueberrycobbler I read that months ago, look them up in, its not like it is a secret that James Dean was sexually active with men, which part was it that you find it hard to believe?
Sal Mineo was bisexual, not gay.
Nooo...Not true..Sal was 16 in this movie..this was a Warner Brothers picture...The Censors were Extremely strict in the 1950s, more so than in the 30s...James was 24..Sal was 16..No way..
What is true is that they had Plato gay and looking for a father figure..at that time, the theory was that if you were missing your father in your life, you could turn out gay..hungering for male love..and James told the Director that Sal should look at him the way he looks at Natalie Wood..
@@sandrahernandez569 To be honest, I kinda think there's some truth to that theory, as I'm bisexual myself, had a disastrous relationship with my father, and I began crushing on a male professor of mine (I'm a college student) and I already had a history in high school of trying to get parent-type relationships with my teachers. Nevertheless, I don't see the boyfriend I have now as a father-like figure, really.
"He’s always cold" that was heartbreaking.. 💔💔
we fuckin watched this in my 1950's Lit class in junior year of high school and I'm steppin into this film like ok cool yeah 1950's film it's gonna be probably weird but chill and then it just went and Did That, ripped my heart out and shit, and I'm just sittin in the class like bro, how could you betray me like this @ my fave lit teacher
what's the time stamp pls ?
@@saw_kon 18:07
@@JolynHenry thank u so much
I have no context for this movie. Just knew James Dean was in it. It was popular and James was/still is a heart throb. But I started crying when he said that. 😢 and now im going to find rebel without a cause and go watch it
1:38 So he keeps a photo of Cary Grant in his locker? That's gaf right there.
Fruity as fuck
Yep. Great performance by Sal Mineo who played it too well. He was seemed hot for Dean.
it is well-known that he was gay.
@Adrienne Gurge right. he was WAY ahead of his time!
@Ed Miller there are people on TH-cam who don't speak English as their primary language!!
Beautiful cinema ❤
great performances all around tbh
Was he really always cold or was that his excuse to steal the jacket
Jim is the one who kept offering it to him, Pluto never asked for it.
Erebma Dammahom if you watched the movie he asked for it towards the end
@@Paul-jv5kw oh you're right. My bad lol
you saw right through his ruse
I know there was a kiss between Sal and James in the script but I'm still scratching my head wondering where would it be located. Maybe somewhere in the mansion segment?
I don't know for sure but if it were up to me I'd have put it at the gate/garage to Jim's house like around 6:18
Omg when they turn their heads around and make a pause before Plato says goodbye! You're right that must be it
Jolyn Henry Same that’s what I was thinking as well 6:39 the way he’s standing close to him and his eyes and whole body just screams I WANT TO KISS JAMES DEAN 😍
My guess is 6:50
The scene outside Jim's house makes sense, but I like the idea of it being in the night planetarium scene, with Plato in Jim's jacket and the stars spinning around them
I feel like the milk scene could also be interpreted as Jim being stuck between adulthood and childhood. Like in the beginning, he’s trying to be grown up by getting drunk but he eventually embraces being young by drinking milk straight from the bottle.
I think you're on to something here tbh
No it represented semen , clear and simple.
JLove@TheLounge no
What stuck out for me was how he rolled the milk bottle back and forth across his forehead to cool off. There was an unspoken eroticism in that scene, I have no doubt Dean improvised that.
Jimmy goes to walk into the girls bathroom but stops himself just before,then immediately heads to the boys bathroom where he sees Plato,subtext,that’s all I’m saying
I can't for the life of me figure out the deeper meaning behind that particular sequence of events
I didn’t know how badly I needed this in my life

Without even seeing the whole movie, one can feel the strong chemistry between the two. What a tragic end to something so beautiful between two people. But it reminds me of the old saying on namely on James Dean's part, " you don't miss a good thing (you never realize how much you loved [it/someone]) until they're gone.
the ending fucking gets me like it's just fkin heartbreaking
You haven’t seen it, but you saw this and made up your mind so the narrative that you want to see is confirmed? Sheesh.

Jolyn Henry I am that friend
@@Paul-jv5kw you're always cold.. but I'll be damned if you're not my friend
James Dean and Sal Mineo had so much chemistry, arguably more so than James and Natalie in the movie. The fact that they were both gay/bi doesn't seem an accident as far as casting choices go.
good casting fs
Her character served no purpose whatsoever, other than to try to “sanitize” the relationship between Plato and James.
James talked about wanting to portray a homosexual love affair explicitly, as did Sal. If you can believe it, the screenplay was even gayer and this was the toned down version for the Hollywood censors
This is my boyfriend Jim and his boyfriend Plato
asdgkjsdga
If anyone really wants to think about it, Sal Mineo was only 5 6" and probably 130lbs. Not exactly a tough guy. He had no street smarts when he died. He was renting an apartment which means he did not have much money or much of a Hollywood career after the 60s. The 60s were being dominated by Sean Connery Steve McQueen and Rock Hudson. Parts for him dried because he couldn't compete with the tough guys. I remember he got to close to an ape and got choked to death.
Yikes

anyone: why is Rebel your favorite movie?
me: *links to this video*
me: cause it's gay, karen
The Jim Stark character was comfortable enough with his own sexuality to befriend his closeted gay classmate, the Plato character, who probably had a crush on Jim. Like the Jim, both the Judy character and Plato do not fit into the expectations of the time; they are all rebels who found each other - but ultimately, the expectations of the time won out. I think in high school or in college, we all had that one straight guy who befriended us and upon whom we developed a crush and we became best friends with him and his girlfriend. It is why we can relate to this storyline so much.
James Dean is a registered bisexual according to WikiPedia😂
registered and everything damn I guess he must have his bisexual license and shit
Oh to be an officially registered bisexual 💙💜❤
How does one register...? The DMV. .? Or at Macy's like with the gift registry...?
Asking for a friend...😏
Remember the chicken race and the knife blade fight?
James died in a drag race. Sal died getting stabbed.
Edit: I made a slight mistake in James death, thanks for Gene below for pointing it out. James didn't die in a drag race, but rather, he died _driving_ to one. He always found car racing to be fun, and made it his hobby/another optional source of income. It was certainly tragic, with him being only 24, but he always said that he would like to die that way, while being young.
Sal, on the other hand, turned to stage performance, and a few days after getting it on, he was mugged near his appartment and let to die. He never quite got over James' death (he never made it a secret that he had feelings for him), so, sure, their deaths where horrible, and the three main leads died in unnatural ways, but hey, if there is a place to go after fading, the three friends can still be a family wherever they are.
cursed
He wasn't in a drag race. He was just out driving fast by himself.
@@genedryer-bivins8314 Thanks, pal! Already fixed it.
Excellent point- what Irony. Even more- there's the scene where Jim, Sal and Nat run into an empty pool in the abandoned mansion. Wood died by drowning in 1981. Their inevitable deaths, though revealed, are cryptic messages in this grim film.
I like what u said... in my mind Id like to think James & Sal met Natalie at the gates & james put his arm around her & said "kid, lemme buy u a drink. Youve had a rough night" and natalie said " drink? Here? " And Sal said " best milk youve ever tasted up here" ... And they all walked off into the sunset ..
"We could sneek around abd nobody would know"
Holy FUCK
like???? they can't just put lines like that in the movie!! fuck!!!!!
They should go fishing at brokeback mountain. I just hope they don't eat all the fish they catch and bring some back home 😉
I mean one of them's already gonna die anyway so why not
Im getting the feeling James Dean turnt out most of the industry. 😂😂
He was bisexual in real life but surpressed it because of the hateful times.
Elizabeth Taylor already said on stage and interviews that he would confined in her in late night telephone calls and one on one late night talks, about his sexuality and she was like his mother or bestfriend and someone to talk to...she is a huge LGBTQ icon.
Meny actors have come out to her but she never said a word until they died and she still respected them and honored them.
G
Plato has some daddy issues going on here.. lol
👀👀👀
‘Is he a friend of yours ?’ He looked at her and said ‘bitch back off’ 😂❤️
(nervously trying to stake his own claim on this himbo)
I'm still laughing at this 2 years later.
I love how by being forced to hide homosexuality from movies directors got creative and used every tool in their belt to make the subtext scream homosexuality

Im 29. I saw this movie on turner classic movies one night when i was bored with nothing to watch in my late teens. The energy between James and Sal was immediately noticeable but I think my mind was playing tricks on me. Turns out I was right, and I’m glad I was. The chick (dont even know her name) wasnt even needed in this movie lol. Coulda just left her out. Anyways, Sal’s pretty dreamy
franksmith16 The “chick”was Natalie Wood. She died from drowning at age of 43, Sal Mineo was killed at age of 37, and James Dean died in auto accident at age 24. But I do agree that Natalie Wood’s role was to simply be the female between James Dean and Sal Mineo, to lessen any awareness of a possible connection between the 2 guys.
not here for Judy erasure tbh. but yeah tho
@@boborrahood damn
@@lusidsteamteamcaptain Okay, I just added to my comment, a year later..
That "chick" was needed, so the two main characters could form a complete family - mother and father - to young Plato. Notice in the film how they mocked their parents. It was meant as a cautionary warning: look after your kids and love them unconditionally. Or you will lose them.
A man taking another man's warm jacket in the old days was definitely a "yes let's be gay together" thing straights didn't know about.
👀
Dude I would go bi for him, just look at him
anyone who says they wouldn't is lying to you or themselves
I thought James Dean was more of a father figure for Plato. It seemed Plato was looking for a father figure since his father was absent.
I think that's a completely valid interpretation of their relationship, especially with the way it ends up being portrayed in the final cut of the film.
With the consideration of the stuff that was going to be in the film and didn't make it, it makes the interpretation more difficult; they were initially scripted to kiss, which obviously complicates that. In any case, I don't think it's an either/or situation, but rather a complex (and not particularly healthy) in-between relationship where Plato finds both a father figure and a romantic partner wrapped into one person.
Please, don't ruin the video. Thanks.
@@EmviloriamE people having their own distinct interpretation of the content doesn't prevent you from enjoying said content. @jamest681 has been polite and respectful in expressing their interpretation. Chill

Well he definitely had daddy issues. I think it may have been a little like Stan (or Stan was like Plato), where Stan was so obsessed with Eminem that he talked about wanting them to be together.
There may be a clue in the name of ‘Plato’ - after all it was the Ancient Greek Philosopher Plato who introduced to the world the notion of ‘platonic love’....
you know what you might actually have a point here
James Dean saying to Sal Mineo:
“You’re not ready to come out yet?” Made me laugh

With a title like this; how could I afford not to click?

Were you there? You seem to know the private details I never found out in my 72 years
Ya
film class in high school 1991 we watched this, we had never seen it before. We quickly realized this was the gayest thing we had ever seen in our lives, even after the 80s, and we were astonished this was a big budget WB movie event in the 50s because it was gay, gay, gay from the first second of the movie.
Truly can't believe this was a real film made available to the general public in the mid 20th century
I GOT THE BULLETSSSSSS
that's the sound of my heart breaking
13:16 Not ready to come out yet? ;)
