Not what we’re used to seeing today. Loved the story & emotions. Shows you that teens want to be understood & adults need to recognize this!

I saw this film when I was very young and I loved it. Seeing it today I understand the conflicts from the view points of both the teenagers and the adults. The stars were fabulous and are legends for a reason.

A milestone in the creation of new idea about young people.

There are some excruciating flashes of accuracy and truth in this film...However, we do wish the young actors, including Mr. Dean, had not been so intent on imitating Marlon Brando in varying degrees. The tendency, possibly typical of the behavior of certain youths, may therefore be a subtle commentary but it grows monotonous.

The red-jacketed, Method-pouting James Dean steals every scene, but the ensemble playing is nothing short of exemplary.
