Movie: Rebel Without a Cause (1955) w/ John DiLeo
June 25, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
James Dean stars in a movie that shocked the United States with a performance that still electrifies the screen twenty-five years after his untimely death prior to the film’s release. In this archetypal drama of teenage angst and rebellion, three high school students who should lead idyllic lives in their stable, comfortable suburban families explode with a violence and sexuality that their parents cannot understand. This film, which ripped the façade from the post-war American dream to expose the rage of the country’s youth, resonates with an energy that has made it a modern classic and a powerful coming-of-age story.
Special introduction to the film and a Q&A following with John DiLeo, prominent film historian, critic, and author of seven books about classic movies.
The Milford Theater Bar will be open one hour before the show, serving wine, beer, cocktails and concessions!
