James Dean Is The Beatnik King
22 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
James Dean was an incredible actor he could convey so much emotion in the simplest of gestures.

I had no idea that General Electric Theatre existed until a month ago and was pleasantly surprised Ex-President Ronald Reagan would be both producing and acting in this series.

The story is simple, two beatnik teenagers take over a doctors office after hours because one of them has been shot.

Seeing James Dean being erratic and listening to jazz was amazing! I also loved the raw emotion he brought to the role breaking down and acting erracting throughout the episode terrorising the doctor and wife.

It was a solid playlet and loved the acting, plot and cinematography because it felt so claustrophobic.
