    I don't know if it should be said that Dean was lucky to meet this character, or that this character was lucky to meet Dean. In short, the result of mutual fulfillment has become the biggest attraction of the film. Dean's sensitive and slender interpretation gives the character a sense of tragedy. Sony Ericsson for his father and jealousy for his brother constitute the main contradiction of the show, and Kazan uses a lot of oblique compositions to strengthen the twisted relationship between the...

    The good kids and the bad kids are jealous of the bad kids' extraordinary freedom to attract attention Bad kids are jealous of the good kids forever on the lips of the father "you're a likable kid" The first time I met my mother, I felt that I was by my father's side but never I haven't received any love. I like the scene where Cal and his mother are together. The estranged mother has a different taste. In the end, if it wasn't for Cal's behavior, it's not too much. Why can't he? I have the...

    In 1955, the former left-wing director Kazan had completely walked out of his previous "snoticing incident", and even used the previous year's "The Dock" to make a clever defense for himself, his own left-wing concept ("A Street Named Desire"). car”) has shifted to another level of family-oriented right-turn traditional thinking. The choice of inconsistencies dooms the inherent contradictions of this film. Compared with "Rebel Without a Cause", which was in the same year and starring James...

    It's hard to imagine Dean's film debut being such a well-structured and ambitious masterpiece. The variation of the biblical story of Cain Abel is a popular drama of family ethics. The girlfriend is the intervenor, watching the family's polarities of good and evil. Sometimes, the real evil has more vitality than the ignorant good. Looking at Dean's three films, they are all different interpretations of the image of the "rebel son". Forever James Dean, a huge lost in film...

    Looking at the title, I thought it was another religious film. Except for the story of Cain and Abel, it actually didn’t have too many religious elements (the gifts given by the brothers at the birthday party should correspond to Cainia in the Bible). The plot of Bo's offering to God). The story revolves around a sentimental teenager Carl. On the surface, he is rebellious and what he wants most is the love and care from his family, from helping to unload goods, to making war money to make up...

    Purely for James Dean. Rebellious, impulsive, rebellious but sensitive and fragile, intelligent and precocious, Carl actually just wants to get the love of his parents. As a devout and stubborn Christian, his father always did not show his liking for Carl. Perhaps it was the same character. Love of freedom and hatred of bondage caused Carl's mother and Carl to disagree with him. But emotion is such a strange thing. What you can't get is always in turmoil. The favored brother has no fear, and...

East of Eden quotes

  • [Abra pleads with Adam to reconcile with his son]

    Abra: Mr. Trask, it's awful not to be loved. It's the worst thing in the world. Don't ask me - even if you could - how I know that. I just know it. It makes you mean, and violent, and cruel. And that's the way Cal has always felt, Mr. Trask. All his life! Maybe you didn't mean it that way - but it's true. You never gave him your love. You never asked for his. You never asked him for one thing.

  • Abra: But you must give him some sign, Mr. Trask, some sign that you love him... or he'll never be a man. All his life he'll feel guilty and alone unless you release him.
