Interesting conversation! I must admit I strongly disagree with you both regarding Rebel Without a Cause. I find it thoroughly compelling & Dean is captivating.
I guess everyone’s mileage may vary. There are other “classics” that truly mystify me in their popularity. For example, I hated Ghostbusters back in the 1980s & don’t get me started on Jurassic Park.
I do like that Rob frequently references the Scorsese documentary. I frequently show clips in my film history course.
I really wasn’t aware of Ray beyond directing Rebel Without A Cause. But like many of these episodes, I found the history and filmography fascinating. I don’t think I will ever look at Gloria Grahame the same again though. Yikes.
