To belong....and be loved.  The enduring classic of alienated youth. Jim Stark is another good kid gone bad and non one knows why. To all, Jim like thousands of other kids-- is just another Rebel Without a Cause.  James Dean stars as Jim Stark the new kid in town whose loneliness, frustration and anger mirrored the feelings of many postwar teens. Probably the most influential of all James Dean's films. His riveting performance leaves a lasting impression. Hollywood's youngest REBEL is sensational!
