The scene where James Dean pushes his father is really awesome, he yells stand up for me, glares at his mother and expects his father to be brave. Obviously a father but more like a son, obviously a son but he wants to teach his father how to become a man. The relationship between James Dean and Judy and John is also very complicated. Judy and John both grew up in an environment without a father, and have a serious Electra complex. And Jim seems to be their father, and the three form a twisted and strange family in an abandoned castle. John looked at Judy even a little jealous.
But the rebellion without a reason is actually a gentle rebellion. Although it seems to be domineering, it is not a bad boy. Always speak in an inarticulate tone, always look at you with 45-degree eyes and frown at you, the reason for a duel is to fight against a cowardly father, step on the school badge but still say sorry, and also put a coat on the neurotic John. Put on the jacket for fear of him being cold. So I think the only real rebel is John. The last rebel in the film dies, and the other so-called rebel still submits to the social system, as if telling you that if you don't act obediently, you will not end well, which is sad and ironic. In the end, the inexplicable reconciliation of the male protagonist's parents and the eyes we all know make me want to laugh.
