Less well known is that he polished his craft through a long apprenticeship in front of the camera on television. Between his arrival in New York in 1951 and his departure for Hollywood two years later, Dean appeared in some forty TV shows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDavid Loehr presents three of Dean's rare movies alongside other footage of Jimmy on screen including a Pepsi commercial, a Highway Safety advert, movie trailers, race footage and East of Eden out-takes (plus an audio interview). In all three films Dean displays his archetypal screen characteristics: a misunderstood, angst-ridden youth with shades of a crazy mixed-up psycho delinquent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProgram Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSomething for an Empty Briefcase — aired on the Campbell Sound Stage on July 17th 1953. Features Dean as a small-time thief with Susan Douglas as the dancer who saves the sad, mad, passionate, pathetic, earnest, whimsical, smart-alec Joe from a life of crime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Unlighted Road — first shown on May 6th 1955 and Jimmy's last TV role. Dean plays a young innocent hitchhiker thrust into a corrupt adult world who narrowly escapes being the subject of a murder trial for a 'cop killing'. Pat Hardy plays his girlfriend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI'm a Fool — co-starring James Dean and Natalie Wood in a tale of personality fabrication and lost love. It aired on the General Electric Theatre on November 14th 1954.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLess than a year after his television appearances, on September 30th 1955, James Dean died in a car crash near the town of Cholame while en route to a race meeting. The anti-establishment hero, exhibitionist, provocateur and movie star was just 24.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDisc Extras and Additional Footage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePepsi commercial (1951)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHighway Safety commercial (1955)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMovie trailers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRacing footage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEast of Eden out-takes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhoto gallery with an audio interview of James Dean talking about the making of Rebel Without a Cause\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHIS IS A FOREIGN PAL DVD SO IF YOU ARE IN THE USA YOU WILL EITHER HAVE TO MAKE SURE YOUR DVD\/BLU-RAY PLAYER IS USING AN HDMI CABLE TO YOUR TV AND REGION FREE OR USE YOUR COMPUTER TO PLAY THE DISC\/S. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Cherry Red Films","offers":[{"title":"Used In Sleeve","offer_id":51327042519318,"sku":"130335","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/2026325141018377scan.jpg?v=1779200434","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/james-dean-the-rare-movies-pal","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
