Forever James Dean

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a great video about the short but legendary life of James Dean. It contains pieces of several interviews of friends, actors, and other people who knew James well. It also shows stunning scenes from James' three movies that will forever be remembered. You'll learn of James' complex life: from his grief-filled childhood to his fatal accident. You'll see in depth stories of his life which show just how much of fascinating person Dean truly was. The only set back of the film is its length. At only 69 minutes, I don't think you can get nearly as much information about Dean's life than you should from a movie all about this legend. The movie should have been longer, with more of the interviews and scenes and other stories. However, you still will be very pleased after watching the film; I was in tears for most of it. Why?- you'll have to see for yourself. I strongly urge you to buy "Forever James Dean" if you are a die-hard fan or if you are just a little interested about this star, or as the movie describes him: "a comet of Holloywood". After watching this film, your heart will be gasping for air, and you'll be left in awe only wanting to see and learn more about James Dean."

Good Documentary

"This Documentary was good because they focus on his career more than his trouble life. That being said I would rate this Documentary of a grade C+ because I believe they should focus equally on his life and career to give the audience who watches this documentary a whole understanding of how his life was affected by losing his mother and a father who was distant from him."
