About this Movie
Rebel Without a Cause
In this archetypal drama of teenage angst and rebellion, three high school students who should lead idyllic lives in their stable, comfortable suburban families explode with a violence and sexuality that their parents cannot understand. This film—which ripped the façade from the post-war American dream to expose the rage of the country's youth—resonates with an energy that has made it a modern classic and a powerful coming-of-age story
