Whenever James Dean is on screen he steals the scene, especially noticable in those shared with Rock Hudson. Not one of my favorite Dean movies but he always captures your attention, doesn’t even need to speak to act. Must be why he was considered one of the finest method actors, today he’d be looked upon as a great Indie actor.
