Bonus material: full-length film by Robert Altman, The James Dean Story (1957).
Summary:
A comprehensive look at the little-known aspects of the legendary star's spectacularly brief career. It was just 1,734 days from Dean's first on-screen appearance to his death. Includes rarely seen footage of his on-air debut at age 19, television appearances, movie trailers, 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.
