James Dean: American Icon
This hagiographic work contains an enormous collection of hitherto unpublished photos showing Dean as a child, student and actor both on Broadway and in his three major Hollywood films (East of Eden, Rebel Without a Cause and Giant. The text is a melange of quotations from previous eulogists and of pretentious attempts to analyze Dean's attraction. PW remarked: "Dean's insatiable fans will doubtless be sucked in by this ridiculous scrapbook's elegant layout."Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
