Description:
The man behind the legend and a knowing look at the 1950's Hollywood are revealed in this dynamic bioepic of the meteoric star whose troubled life echoed his gut-grabbing performances in East of Eden, Rebel Without A Cause and Giant.

They made Dean seem to be one dimensional. They showed his "rebel" side as very dominant with just a touch of lonely boy and jokester. I couldn't even imagine him ever slapping Pier! Where did THAT come from? I DID like the reinactments of the scenes from his movies and the early scenes of Dean as a child.
I'd like to see a movie made from input with the people who knew him and are still alive to say, "Jimmy did/didn't do that." I don't need his life in chronological order. I just ... Read More

It was simply amazing. James Franco out did himself. I hope James got something really good out of doing this movie because is was one of the best performances that I've ever seen him in. I was already a major Franco fan but this movie gave me a great respect for the man (before I just liked his face-so sue me I'm female) You wouldn't be able to tell between him and the actual James Dean, it was that good. I absolutely recommend this movie for anyone who enjoys a good flick. It gave an excellent insight ... Read More

Despite good acting and production values, with all the research now available on James Dean, and in spite of the fact that this television movie is directed by somebody who claims to have been an acqaintance of Dean's, you would have thought the writer and producer could have come up with something better than the piece of cliched fanzine twaddle it ultimately devolves into. It would take too long to point out all the oversights and inaccuracies only too obvious to anyone who has even read lightly on the ... Read More

I would like to begin by truly saying that James Dean was an actor that met his end before we, as cinema watchers, were fully about to appreciate his talent as well as full body of work. The short three films that he devoted himself to wasn't enough for my taste buds, and I think the majority of film aficionados would heartily agree - yet I would have to say that those seeking the knowledge of James Dean, the truth behind his life and his devotion to youthfulness - should not (repeat NOT) watch this horrid ...

This is quite a remarkable made for TV film about the intense, fast and tragically short life of the master of method acting; James Dean.
James Franco plays Dean so convincingly that at times it is easy to forget that this is not James Dean himself.
Bio films always take a little licence with actual facts and events and no doubt this is true here.
Overall Franco reveals his own, quite stunning and at times, moving, acting ability and it is easy to see why he is now achieving ... Read More
