The Life Of A Cultural Icon: The James Dean Story (Full Documentary) | Amplified 

Richard Davelos, who played Dean's brother in "East of Eden", told me so many decades ago, "... I learned more about acting just watching Jimmy's movements and facial expressions than I could have in an acting class".

This documentary is so much more intense because it’s in black and white. Thank you! The tone is so James Dean! I can’t believe more people aren’t seeing this!

THE REASON THE WORD COOL WAS USED AS A DESCRIPTION OF CHARACTER WAS FOR THIS MAN, HE SET THE TEMPLATE FOR COOL WITH NO TAKERS BEFORE, DURING, OR SINCE. A TRUE ONE OFF.

An enigma in his own time, a lost reckless child who had so much more than others. I lived during these times and Dean was the beginning of unrest in America. His family inherited most of what he was and is today!

Definitely no one else like him,never will be again,unique handsome actor,what an icon,after only doing 3 amazing films,will always be loved ,remembered and appreciated..Love him lots,R.I.P dear Jimmy Dean😘💕

So Shakespearean, his life. He “lived fast, and died hard.” A true “Rebel Without a Cause.” R.I.P, James Dean.

I was a junior in high school and I was so broken-hearted, was like a little part of my died, seems funny now I'm an old lady.

I got his book by Taschen. So many years ago. Maybe from 2007 or something. He is really an exciting individual to delve onto. Truly ahead of his time.

James Dean was Truly one Super Special Individual ❤️ 💖 This world 🌎 could Certainly use More People like Him. He had the Entire Package. 🙏 RIP JAMES DEAN.

Jimmy Dean for ever in my heart❤️

Love this presentation - thank you for uploading - beautiful,

I was born in 42 years ago and saw his movies he was a great actor so sad did not live long i have some of his collections

Thanks for this I know nothing about him I wasn't born People have talked about him All these great actors seem very very deep and they've all gone 😢

I saw some of his movies on TCM l’am glad they still exist

1:17:30 Those eyes could melt your soul. “In order to know life you must come close to death”… Poor Jimmy came too close to death. As much as he was a searcher and as much as he embraced the life around him I don’t think he ever came to terms with the lonely boy who lost his mother 😞. He never loved himself as much as others loved him

This is beautiful art. Made for a beautiful being. Noir and human and bright like a diamond buried in the dirt.

Jimmy was an instinctive intellectual He went by his emotions

jimmy was an anachronism for his time. technicolor walking in a world without pixelation even.

985.. great share my best friend ...!

Beautiful

He was fantastic No one like him he was a one off❤😢

Was just told I look like James Dean and came here to watch this. Thank you for sharing! R.I.P. James Dean!

What a voice. What a narrator. 🏆

Anyone noticed the empty seat in the beginning? Hits different

Какой талантливый,красивый мальчик ушёл на взлёте своей карьеры,всего 24 года жизни ему было отмерено!!! Как это нелепо и как несправедливо!! Я не верю,что его смерть -это случайная авария! Нет! Эту аварию подстроили, ему многие завидовали ,и многие желали ему смерти!! Покойся с миром,Джеймс! Ты прожил короткую, но яркую жизнь! Прошло много лет,но тебя помнят и любят ,и будут помнить и любить!

The original sad boy.

I wonder if James Dean had any idea of how much he was admired.

I’m crazy about James Dean ❤❤❤😊😢

2000 views and just 75 likes???? C'mon!!! We can do better than that! 💪💪

I'm reading that they want to use James Dean's AI person in a movie now. Surely he wants to rest in peace.

The 50's were a weird time. It's sad that Dean lost his mom when he was so young and, although it's never said, obviously his dad wasn't in the picture. But this film makes it sound like growing up on a farm and befriending your nephew was somehow sinister.....

The guy was two months old and he's sitting already 🤔🤨 ????

Why do a lot of biographies start with the end? I don't understand this technique.

Any child you don,t have parents to love him/her they grow up broken😂

A very handsome man he was but he seemed like a complicated character, died far too young

若いままのジミーも悪くないけど、渋さをました中年のジミーも見てみたかった

Gone too soon.

Legend yes..but hero...u'll have to go to many stages.before u reach that one..maybe he was a hero in his own kind a way

Who speaks in this documentary ?

I Recently read a book. Called Wide Spread Panic. It’s about Hollywood Private Investor Fred Otash in the book. He Befriends James Dean. And James Dean would go on Stakeouts with Otash and Dean Also would carry information. Regarding other Stars personal lives and Otash would steak out their place to get juicy details lol.

I too am JD ! We are one and the same and there was nowt I could do about it ....

Mrs. Dean? That's Mrs. Winslow.

Someone else got 777.

..... en español ??

This is cheesier than 55 wheels of cheddar.

aka Dylan McKay's dad

watching this intently, I think he had BPD. He demonstrates many of the characteristics.

poor Jayne Mansfield making a spectacle of herself at the movie's premiere that's no one took her seriously

I thought he was a gangster

I don't think James could have stepped into comedy ...but he was great at sulking

For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion. For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works. Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment. Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest. I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them. ECCLESIASTES 9:4-12 King James Version 😊

So much philosophy and talk but nothing practical, if we leave aside the concepts and words of others no one really knows what kind of man he was but people like rumours, they find reality monotonous and boring, in fact James Dean never even existed, he's just a well-marketed image that make money

ele. NAO. era homossexual. ele. queria. curtir. a. vida.

JAMES DEAN AND KURT COBAIN TWIN SONS OF DIFFERENT MOTHERS!

Bad actor, over dramatic like William Shattner but not as funny. Death made his legacy.

ST JOHN 3:16! ❤ JESUS IS RETURNING SOON! HALLELUJAH! ✝️❤️✝️
