Marking the 54th anniversary of the death of one of Hollywood’s biggest stars is a special two-disc collector’s set, James Dean: The Fast Lane, in stores August 11, 2009.
Although his life abruptly ended decades ago at just 24 years old, James Dean remains one of the world’s most beloved and celebrated Hollywood icons.
The two-time Academy Award-nominated actor’s enduring fame and popularity rests on just three roles as leading man (only one of which was released prior to his death), but the brooding Dean – the personification of restless mid-’50s American youth – also appeared in four other films and on popular television shows of the era.
It was just 1,734 days from Dean’s first on-screen appearance to his death. James Dean: The Fast Lane is an unprecedented and comprehensive look at the little-known aspects of the legendary star’s spectacularly brief career. Includes rarely seen footage of his on-air debut at just 19 years old, a 1950 commercial for Pepsi, as well as his final work, ironically a 1955 highway safety PSA filmed just 13 days before he died behind the wheel of his Porsche 550 Spyder.
Screenhead has four James Dean: The Fast Lane DVDs to giveaway. Please post your name and Screenhead will pick the winner Friday, August 7, 2009.
