East of Eden - Love on the Ferris Wheel

[@paraskevisavvidou6241]

With this look of his ... blue eyes .. it is pure madness ...

[@tobiaskrineczky4793]

For me the most beautiful movie ever made‼❤❤

[@candylowery548]

That is my Great Grandpa operating the ferris wheel.

[@joelmaqueira4851]

AWESOME!

[@senoritajbd]

James Dean is so handsome, he looks great in anything. He looks so modern and he had the hair, face, and body to pull it off. Great observation :)

[@Celluloidwatcher]

I agree with some of the users on this forum. The Julie-Jimmy romantic scene in East of Eden was beautiful, and glorious. You forget the six-year age difference and enjoy the meeting of lovers, although Abra loved Cal's brother, Aaron, to Cal's own jealousy. Thanks for presenting.

[@susanb2015]

She loved Cal more.

[@chewbabydoo]

James Dean hypnotises me. I can't take my eyes off him and I can't even hear what he's saying !!!??

[@senoritajbd]

I saw him at the age of 7 in Rebel Without a Cause (how ironic). I instantly fell in love with him and I thought he was the most beautiful male specimen to ever grace the screen. I'm 41 years old and I love him even more now :) I have all three of his films too and I would LOVE to get his tv movie collection, that would be awesome! Good luck on getting the collection.

[@senoritajbd]

I'd give anything to be Julie Harris in that scene....WOW!!!

James Dean's best movie! OMG he was such a great actor and sexy, too! He died too damn young! Julie Harris was wonderful in this movie, too, even if she did get on my nerves sometimes.

[@francescomazzella7380]

Julie Harris was an amazing actress... just here and right now I have seen she died last year on August... R.I.P. Julie Harris, an amazing actress with a face of angel... she was so great in "East of Eden", your fans will never forget you

[@Deborah-kz1bv]

@Francesco Mazzel Have you seen Julie Harris in , " Member of the Wedding"?

[@makeittrue]

My absolute favorite scene in "East of Eden". She really earned Jimmy's trust and this scene allowed his inner acting skills come alive with so little mannerisms & how he can hold her gaze.....beautiful.

[@countclaire]

This cracks me up! And I'm so jealous of her. I want to kiss James Dean :(

[@Daisypetal100]

James Dean so young, talented and gorgeous!

[@shanemichaels3083]

you can tell he wouldn't have aged well though, he already had dark lines under his eyes, he had a combination of older facial lines for his age and youthful expressiveness which was great for a young actor

[@makeittrue]

By far my favorite scene in East of Eden! Cal finally has Abra to himself and she can open herself up to him. I think Julie Harris was wonderful with James Dean. She just had the ability to diffuse Dean's insecurities as this was his first big film. She is also the only one where he trusted her off screen and it transfers beautifully to their chemistry on screen. He also can keep his eyes directly focused toward hers throughout the film. I have always been curious about his interaction with Jo Van Fleet as his mother. His scenes with her also ring so true. I could swear I have seen photos somewhere of the two of them together laughing it up while in one of those photo booths. Jimmy did have the reputation of being extremely difficult very much as she did. I wonder if they enjoyed each other's company as both were known as "rebels". I'm so glad this particular scene is posted. :)

[@rabbit4111]

James Dean brilliant as usual! He was the most expressive, sensitive actor and just as charismatic today as in his brief genius career then. It was a sad loss to the world that he was taken from us so young.

[@seanfitzpatrick4730]

not a good actor at all so overated

[@sharynstover1823]

Sean Fitzpatrick your the overrated asshole and someone is in denial of not being jelly over here and thats what you are jealous your on all this forum if you don't like james dean then why are you on this forum in the first place dude

[@Forever82803]

Beautiful love scene between Julie and Jimmy, Cal loves Abra for a very long time was jealous of Aaron for a very long time, didn't know if Abra loves him back, but when she touched his hand, he suddenly realizes that she shares exactly the same feelings for him that's why this scene is so moving, this recognition of her love....

[@LuvTadnDixie]

I think he responded because she said he was "nice" and he was always told he was bad by his father. That really got his attention. She sees good in him.

[@makeittrue]

@@LuvTadnDixie I agree. I also find when she says how nice he has been in "taking care of her" that she strikes a chord that is existent in Cal. Everyone else sees him as just being irresponsible of his actions and lacking any positive traits. The idea that Abra thanks him for being responsible (protective) of her even though it is just during the limited time they are at the carnival together creates a bloom of adoration. Perhaps, it also foreshadows the ending where his father finally acknowledges his love in his need for Cal to "take care" of him at the end of the film.

[@thaheeraalthaf1970]

Awww!!! They are so cute! And his face, OMG, his face...

[@ald668]

A beautiful, loving, touching scene, combined with superb acting from both of them.

[@samanthaadora7230]

Oh how I love Hollywood's Golden Age. :) ♡

[@luriello02]

He looks so shy. I don't really know the context but I think jimmy did a great job on acting this scene

[@torilllundborn7899]

1950 movies was the BEST MOVIES EVER....much pain and much heart. And much CRYING from the movie.public.. COME BACK ..Spirits of the old movies

[@retrogal4598]

This is undoubtedly one of the most touching scenes in the whole film. Jimmy gave a voice to the social outsiders of every generation. I cry whenever I watch him on the screen, because I see myself in his characters.

[@jimishawcross7409]

Rest in Peace Julie....now you'll be making all your movies in Heaven...

[@terzofan55]

Julie Harris is very lucky to had kissed James Dean I wish I could 😍😍😍😍😍

[@JM4EDR]

Sadly, poor Julie just passed away. Finally she'll see Jimy again xxx

[@jim64965]

I wish that was me he was kissing. My heart skips a beat when I look at this scene. James dean long live the legend

I wish I was there on that Ferris Wheel with him instead !

Saturday night I went to my car and this giant star caught my eye. Only thing in the sky, was bright as day. Must have been Venus. Today I see this, and Julie mentions a star. She died on Saturday. I think it was her in the sky I saw.

[@HeidiIvy]

[@sylviebertran8201]

Julie Harris was so beautiful . Now they are both gone

[@johnberard9820]

It was one of the best scenes in the film....I remember the director shot this scene last for some reason.....maybe they had added dialogue ....or redid the ferris wheel close ups.....

[@joycegibbs5267]

fantastic scene, so charged.

[@lmp19791]

So romantic. His vulnerability...

A method actor with a most unusual method. I'll remember that one. Fuck, he's gorgeous.

[@satusallantaus]

why am I crying?

[@lannarox123]

Maybe I'm the only one on here who thinks this but I found her acting to be not so believable and natural, in comparison to James.' He is very natural on screen and more believable than any actor I've seen him with.

[@WilliamBarryRoberts]

yeah, he was among the first of the modern actors.....a natural, more realistic character

Why does this doesnt happen in real life?:(

[@alg11297]

It may be this scene that turned me off to this movie. Is this innane dialogue in the book? "Is it because you're bad? Are you bad? Sometimes I think I'm bad.
