only love

James Dean has made three movies in this life, all of which can be called classics, I only like this oneA friendship between father and son. What moved me was not only the wonderful emotions between father and son, but also the unique performance from James Dean, which showed me that there was such an extraordinary person in the United States in the 1950s. The movie actor was moved by it. It’s a pity that he only left three movies for future generations, but he left us early. But I still can’t forget his bewildered face and blank eyes. Maybe he just did it for this. Three movies live.

[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.
