	East of Eden
		I first saw East of Eden out of curiosity - James Dean was not a cultural icon then but rather an almost forgotten actor who met a tragic end when my crop of teenagers were in grade school.
		When Kazan was casting East of Eden, he took great care in choosing Cal. While the Steinbeck novel was a multigenerational epic, the movie adaptation only covered the last third of the book and Cal is on screen for all but a couple of minutes.
		I was disappointed that East of Eden had not yet been released in DVD in America by 2000, so I managed to get a Hong Kong release from Ebay, and felt that I was truly seeing it for the first time.

		In East of Eden, James Dean successfully resurrects his tortured soul act and embodies the character of Cal Trask; a young man who desperately wants to find some common ground with his father but can't quite seem to get out of his brother's wide shadow.
		Many of the film's most touching moments were slightly over the top but I guess that overacting -dropping to your knees while crying etc- was in fashion back then and I actually enjoyed seeing the flurry of emotions explode from the actors.
		East of Eden really is a great movie and I think it will always remain a classic must-see film.

	thoughts on East of Eden (1955, Kazan) - MJ Forums
		East of Eden was the film adaptation of a John Steinbeck novel.
		The same type of thing is going on between Cal and Adam in the movie, though unlike Kazan in real life, Jame Dean's character did love his father which is why he made all the attempts to get noticed.
		The last frame of the movie, as I said ends on a optomistic note with Dean sitting at his fathers bedside, after recently going into a coma due to the shock of everything.

	Rotten Tomatoes Forums - 1955-Elia Kazan's EAST OF EDEN was James Dean's first film & should your first too!!!
		If this newly restored 35mm print of "East of Eden" ever comes to a city near you I highly suggest you make every effort to see it.
		"East of Eden" is a stunning debut and it earned him an Oscar nomination (despite complaints from fellow actor Raymond Massey about his 'technique').
		Of course the performance by Jo Van Fleet as the boy's 'dead' mother should be noted (she won the Oscar for Best supporting actress), but I need to mention a smaller role since actress Lois Smith was nice enough to come out and introduce "East of Eden" before the screening.
