East of Eden. 1955 with Raymond Massey, J. Harris Dean, Burl Ives, directed by Elia Kazan. James Dean's best performance in which his capacity for portraying a rebel youth is fully used, unlike the more acclaimed Rebel without a Cause, which was a spinoff of Brando's prototypical 50's motiveless wandervogel in The Wild One.

But the director cannot make us feel the desperation and the destinies of his characters. Elia Kazan's America, America was not so elaborate or well sustained as The Emigrants, but Kazan's film had the impact of personal experience. The Emigrants has the accumulation of exquisite detail and close observation; it lacks intensity...
