Review of East of Eden (1955) by Paul D — 18 Feb 2014
It takes a director like Elia Kazan to draw such a a histrionic and emotionally intense performance from his lead, (just as he did with Marlon Brando in A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront.) and to capture the expanse and mood of the California setting so perfectly, the ironic contrasts between the beautiful backdrops and the troubled people mirroring the written work of John Steinbeck superbly.
