Brief Background

Marlon Brando in "The Godfather"

Dean's acting in the clip may seem normal in terms of today's standards, but why was this considered "rebellious" or "non-conformist" at his time?

- Dean wasn't a prominent actor because of his skills in acting

- The more important reason was because of his new style that no other actor had represented before

- This style was a rebellious, non-conformist acting style that later tied into his impact on America

- Dean was also among the first to receive an academy award nominee posthumously, one for "East of Eden" and one for "Giant" in 1955 and 1956

- Throughout his career, Brando was known for being a self indulgent actor

- His self-indulgence is visible throughout the years, weighing well over 300 pounds in the mid 1990s

- His second wife Movita once put a lock around the refrigerator to refrain his eating habits, but Brando broke the lock and his wife found teeth marks on cheese the next day

Nevertheless, Marlon Brando was always one of the finest screen actors in history

Brando won 2 Oscar Awards, one for his performance in "The Godfather," and another for his performance in "On the Waterfront."

- Unlike James Dean, Marlon Brando was not only known for being an icon, but he was known for his acting skills as well

- Specifically, Marlon Brando was known as one of the best actors to adopt method acting in the film industry, what he had gained during his time with Stella Adler

- Method Acting is a type of acting where the actor or actress completely identifies with a character, from dialogue to all emotions

- "A Streetcar Named Desire" showed one of Marlon Brando's best method acting skills, which was one of the reasons why Brando and his movie was so praised

A brief clip of Brando's acting from his movie, "A Streetcar Named Desire"

- Marlon Brando was born April 3, 1924 in Omaha, Nebraska, grew up in Illinois, and died in July 1, 2004.

- Brando moved to New York to receive acting lessons from his coach Stella Adler, who is known for influencing Brando in much of his early years

- The 50s also faced a change in the work place

- The notion of "white collared" workers increased

- "White collared" implied men who wore white shirts and with ties

- The term was used to represent men who had office jobs, as opposed to the term "blue collared" which implied labor jobs

- The norm for white males was to have an office job, where every one looked virtually identical

- This was another big example of conformity rising

2. The Era before they came

- It was the Eisenhower-Ben Gurion era

- A time when young people were expected to respect their elders and obey their rules

- It was the era after the second world war where there was a conformist society

- People were expected to be the same as everyone around them

- Everyone followed group norms: women in the kitchen and men who worked

- The American society was almost entirely based on conformity

- The youth were always known to obey the elders and parents

An image representing conformity in the workplace

- The youth impacted by Dean desired rebellion, confrontation, and defiance of authority

- Dean attacked the moral conventions and this teaching to the youth was a major catalyst to the counterculture movement in the 60s

- Thousands of fans throughout the world still honor the memorial and route that Dean took

- Posters, paintings, and references to him are still present

The James Dean statue at Griffith Park Observatory, Los Angeles

What made Dean such an icon?

- James Dean was such an icon because he was disobedient, young, iconoclastic, and non-conformist, everything that was not the norm during the 50s

- He showed an image that was so new for his era, which turned him into an icon of the 50s

- He was the first teenage rebel, and for this reason for young, coming of age people, Dean was easy to identify with: an outsider, a loner, the antithesis of every expected well behaved youth

- Dean’s messages of being a rebel and going against conservative ideas was major in single handedly causing a big rift between the youth of America and their parents, which was unheard of before the war

"Since I'm only 24 years old, guess I have as good an insight into this rising generation as any other young man my age ... Therefore, when I do play a youth, such as in Warner Bros. Rebel Without A Cause, I try to imitate life. The picture deals with the problems of modern youth ... But you can't show some far off idyllic conception of behavior if you want the kids to come and see the picture. You've got to show what it's really like, and try to reach them on their own grounds. You know, a lot of times an older boy, one of the fellows the young ones idolize, can go back to the high school kids and tell them, "Look what happened to me! Why be a punk and get in trouble with the law?Why do these senseless things just for a thrill?" I hope "Rebel Without A Cause" will do something like that. I hope it will remind them that other people have feelings. Perhaps they will say, "What do we need all that for?"If a picture is psychologically motivated, if there is truth in the relationship in it, then I think that picture will do good.

I firmly believe Rebel Without A Cause is such a picture."

- James Dean at a press conference for "Rebel Without a Cause"

What made Brando such an icon?

- Jim Stark in the movie was an underage drunk, disrespectful to authority figures, something that was unheard of during the 50s

- In the movie, he smoked, raced cars, and stormed out of the house whenever he wanted to, disregarded respect to parents or elders

- The people liked him so much because of this. He was a bad boy teenager that no one had seen before, and it turned him into an instant icon

- "A Rebel Without a Cause" with James Dean brought out the teenage or youth rebellion in the 50s that was later seen to be counterculture in the 60s

Dean's performance as Jim Stark in "A Rebel Without a Cause," showing the rebellious attitude of him

Marlon Brando's scene in "A Streetcar Named Desire" shows one example of an "anticipated explosion"

- Among his movies, "A Rebel Without a Cause" had the most substantial impact in bringing his iconic status

- "A Rebel Without a Cause" portrayed the rebelliousness of adolescence, and even in public he was rude and surly. For this reason, he was appealed by the youth of America

- Dean played a misunderstood and insubordinate youth highlighting rebellion in the movie - A MAJOR impact for the youth movement and James Dean’s impact on the America

- A Rebel Without a Cause had great impact on society due to its content and Dean’s representation, especially by breaking social barriers regarding teenage upbringing

An image depicting conformity

James Dean came at a conformist time, as a rebel who had taken Hollywood by chaos and did what he pleased

James Dean and Marlon Brando's acting may look normal for today's standards, but why was this considered "rebellious" or "non-conformist" for both of them in the 50s?

Brando was the one of the first postwar symbol of youth rebellion and the first male sex symbol along with James Dean.

- Marlon Brando's new, unique, and skillful acting with emotions was one of biggest reasons why he became such a huge icon

- Brando was best at building his character from within, and showing slight hints of emotions in order to do so

- He was skilled at withholding emotions until the precise moment in time to release them

- This was called "anticipated explosion," and was considered one of "the facets of Brando's persona." - JMathews, NY Daily News

- Marlon Brando was not only an icon because of his skills in acting, but like James Dean, he adopted the "bad boy" look during the conformist era.

- People wanted a rebellious and young image, and Marlon Brando came at that time

- His portrayal of a rebellious youth especially in his earlier movies brought him to an iconic status in American culture.

- Marlon Brando is considered as simply one of the greatest actors of all time.

- His acting skills were widely acclaimed from the American people and movie critics

- He was not the first method actor, or the first actor to put emphasis on emotions, but "nobody had ever blown a set apart projecting them like he did" - JMathews, NY Daily News ㅑㅜ

The famous "I coulda been a contender" scene from Marlon Brando

“Dean died at just the right time. He left behind a legend. If he had lived, he'd never have been able to live up to his publicity.” - Humphrey Bogart

A short clip of Brando in "The Wild One

- Dean’s untimely death also brought him up to the popularity he earned

- The James Dean Effect was also founded, “the belief that a wonderful life that ends abruptly near the moment of peak fulfillment is actually more desirable than an equally wonderful life that has additional mildly pleasant years.” - Oliver Libaw, abcnews.com

- The idea of being a “teenager” was first introduced after his death

Newspaper publised in 1953 on Levittown

- Levittown was easily one of the biggest examples of conformity

- William Levitt created Levittown as a solution to the growing demand for houses in the 50s

- He used potato farms to create houses that were built unbelievably fast from the mass production method used by Henry Ford

- As a result, the residents of Levittown were all identical; the same families, same houses

- The norm was to be like everyone else around you, that created a sense of community as suburbia

The people had the same customs in levittown

Levittown

- Among his movies, "The Wild One" represented the most rebellious image of himself.

- His attitude and appearance in the movie showed a sense of youth uprising in a conformist time

- It brought him to an iconic state as he impacted so much of the teenage population through his portrayal of Johnny Strabler, a non-conformist representation of a youth

- Levittown first initiated the notion of an American suburb

- Levittown also had schools and other amenities for the residents

- Levittown was a model of conformity: your neighbors were the same as you in the same house

- Almost every family was same as every other family

- Another impact on conformity during the 50s was the television.

- Everyone wanted it and it became a normal product for almost all families

"Jim Dean and Elvis were the spokesman for an entire generation. When I was in acting school in New York, years ago, there was a saying that if Marlon Brando changed the way people acted, then James dean changed the way people lived. He was the greatest actor who ever lived. He was simply a genius." - Martin Sheen

- Ryan Gosling claims that he had been influenced by Marlon Brando

- He told the Daily Beast, "You can't help but be affected by him...I think all of us are"

- Marlon Brando influenced many actors who came during and after his time in the movie industry.

-"Every recent generation of thespians has had its gang of Brando acolytes. Jack Nicholson, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino were among the first. Sean Penn, Johnny Depp, and Daniel Day Lewis followed them." - Gina Piccalo

Ryan Gosling

- "He was like a godfather to many young actors worldwide but particularly in this country. He had enormous positive influence on younger performers. His memory will live on forever." - Actor Robert Duvall

- "People always ask me who was the most influential guy to us young guys back then. Anyone who doesn't tell you Brando was the man, they're lying. He influenced more young actors of my generation than any actor. Anyone who denies it never understood what it was all about. I loved him." - Actor James Caan

- "I'm angry at Marlon because he does everything so easily. I have to break my ass to do what he can do with his eyes closed." - Paul Newman

- "With my generation, it was always Marlon Brando and always will be Brando." - Jack Nicholson

Marlon Brando's reach to others

Dean had great impact to other actors, musicians, and writers during and after his time. Many prominent figures claim to have being impacted by James Dean, and many others claim to have been thoroughly impressed by the young actor.

“Over the years, an impressive list of actors and performers have claimed to have been influenced by him: Bob Dylan, Al Pacino, Martin Sheen, Michael Parks, the late Jim Morrison, poet and lead singer for the Doors, who lived fast and died hard, just like one of his heroes, James Dean.” - Ron Martinetti, American Legends

- "I am part of the first generation that idolized Marlon Brando, but far from the last. I was in high school back in the Fifties when he came into the game, and I watched him change the rules. When I was growing up in New Jersey, one of my summer jobs was working as an assistant manager of a local movie theater. I must have seen every performance of On the Waterfront – twice a night. You just couldn't take your eyes off the guy. He was spellbinding" - Jack Nicholson on "Remembering Marlon Brando", Rolling Stones

- "Even before I thought about acting, he influenced me strongly. Today it's hard for people who weren't there to realize the impact that Brando had on an audience – never mind on actors, because he's always been the patron saint of actors." - Jack Nicholson

James Dean to others

- John Lennon, Singer

Dennis Hopper,

Actor

"My life was confused and disoriented for years by his passing. My sense of destiny destroyed - the great films he would have directed, the great performances he would have given, the great humanitarian he would have become, and yet, he's the greatest actor and star I have ever known."

- Dennis Hopper

Stewart Stern, Scriptwriter for "A Rebel Without a Cause"

"He seemed to capture that moment of youth, that moment where we're all desperately seeking to find ourselves.”

A series of newspapers published on July 3rd, 2004 after Marlon Brando's death

"Leading the pack were Marlon Brando and James Dean, actors who reeked anger, sexuality, and (of course) contempt for their elders.
