Review of Rebel Without a Cause (1955) by Dave Kehr for Chicago Reader — 16 Apr 1988
Dean's alienation is perfectly expressed through Ray's vertiginous mise-en-scene: the suburban LA setting becomes a land of decaying Formica and gothic split-levels. An unmissable film, made with a delirious compassion.
