James Dean: At Speed

James Dean is famous for his performances in East of Eden, Rebel Without A Cause, and Giant. Less well known is that James Dean had a lifelong passion for speed and high-performance machines. The tenacious drive that led Dean to meteoric greatness as an actor also propelled him into competition during the early years of sports car racing in Southern California. Dozens of unpublished photos taken by family, friends, and amateur photographers combine with interviews with people who really knew Dean and his motorsports dreams to reveal an unseen side of this American icon.
