Cinema Classics Number 2 - "You're tearing me apart!"
Welcome back, classic movie lovers, to the second episode of our new series looking at the legendary films of yesteryear. This time we're moving from 1940s Casablanca to 1950s Los Angeles, USA. That's right, we're looking at director Nicholas Ray's seminal coming-of-age cultural milestone 'Rebel Without a Cause'. Mike is joined once again by co-host D.K, along with special guest Laura Smith-Brese. The trio discuss the performances and tragic legacies of star James Dean, the representation of different genders' growing-up experiences played out by Dean and co-star Natalie Wood, and the cultural context in which this all takes place. There's also discussion about parental, generational trauma and screwing up, commenting on traditional 50s gender roles, and the barely disguised homosexuality at the core of supporting character "Plato". This and much more (yes, including mentioning Tommy blooming Wiseau). So slip on your red jacket, swig a pint of millk, and for goodness sake just ignore anybody that calls you chicken! Enjoy.
