The collar of his coat turned up in New York: Images which have collaborated on building a myth – the image of eternal and misunderstood youth. Unlike Marlon Brando, the proletarian rebel with identifiable goals, James Dean was the timeless and androgynous youthful rebel. His death on the Interstate 46 leads us back to 1950s America, a time when youth was re-interpreted all anew.

Uma breve carreira. Uma estrela imortal. Com apenas três papéis principais, James Dean se tornou um ícone para várias gerações. Agora, seu legado brilha ainda mais forte graças a este fascinante filme que, repleto de cenas nunca vistas de participações de Dean na televisão americana, mais parece um mapa que traça seu meteórico sucesso. Michael J. Sheridan dirige e Martin Sheen narra este revelador documentário exibido no Festival de Cinema de Cannes em 2005. Clipes de filmes, romances, fotos que fazem parte de um acervo histórico (e as estórias que se escondem por trás dele) e um pequeno trabalho que abriu o caminho para o cinema são coisas que os fãs não podiam ver até agora. Eternamente jovem. Infinitamente fascinante.
