1) I never got why #RebelWithoutACause or James Dean were so highly praised & I didn't run into anyone who agree w/me till I toured Steinbeck's museum in Salinas & the docent commented on how Dean totally overacted in every role he was ever in & it dawned on me how true it was.
2) The best acting in Rebel was Sal Mineo. I've never cared for films about teens starring 24 yr olds. Sal Mineo was a teen but they made up 17 y.o. Natalie Wood to looks like a 35 yr old hausfrau.

You’re familiar with the Los Angeles portrayed in #LaLaLand & #OnceUponATimeInHollywood. Maybe you’ve even seen #RebelWithoutACause & #SunsetBoulevard. These 15 movies, though, show a side of the city rarely caught on film bit.ly/2CEax11
#TheExiles (1961) follows Native American twenty-somethings who move to L.A. They hang out on Bunker Hill and shop at Grand Central Market. Watch for sights of downtown before the stately Victorian homes were torn down to make room for office buildings bit.ly/2CEax11 
Peter Bogdanovich hit screens with #Targets, his 1967 directing debut set in the San Fernando Valley. The area’s garish mid-century look, by cinematographer Laszlo Kovacs and production designer Polly Platt, provides a saturated backdrop for the film bit.ly/2CEax11
