you want to marry Miss Ravioli?
Go ahead.
Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy.
You got two weeks left on Eden.
I know Nick Ray's been talking to you
And he wants you for it.
But you know what I told him?
I told him I gotta think about it.
Don't play it smart with me, Jimmy.
I'm tougher than you.
A lot tougher.
Now get out of my car, please.
Drive on.
Put your chin right there. That's good.
You know, because she's Catholic.
So she's not going to break us up
once we're married.
Jimmy, we just need to be married.
Put the cig in your mouth.
Eyes here.
- Can you understand me?
- Yes.
Yes?
You do?
Get over here.
I understand you.
We've gone over it cinquanta times.
Go over there. Get right.
Why do we have to wait?
Oh, that's perfect.
That's perfect.
Why do we have to wait?
Oh, God, you look great.
You look like...
You look like the Madonna.
We can elope.
We can elope.
Yes!
Sure, that's crazy.
Hey, hey, look at me. All right.
Come here. Look, look, look.
Just let me finish making this movie...
...and then we'll get married.
- Yes.
- I promise.
Well, maybe my mother's right.
Maybe you're just using me
to get into the papers.
How can you think that?
That's what my mother thinks.
That's your mother, not you.
Okay? Can we just have
one night here, alone...
...without your mother in bed with us?
She wants me to marry Vic Damone.
She what?
She wants me to marry Vic Damone.
You know, he's Catholic.
She likes him a lot.
So is the Pope.
Why don't you marry him?
I can't fight her!
Why not? Don't you have
a will of your own?
- It's not about will!
- What is it?
It's a matter of family
and being Catholic!
- Listen.
- What?
You tell Vic Damone
and your crazy mother...
...to stay out of our lives,
all right?
- You don't understand!
- I understand!
- You're not listening!
- Stop yelling at me!
Open it.
I love Aron, I do.
Really, I do.
I do, I do.
Cut.
Jimmy, wonderful.
It was just wonderful.
- Julie, you're beautiful. Beautiful.
- Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, that's a print,
a wrap, and we are finished!
Have you seen Jimmy?
He's not in his trailer.
Jimmy?
Come on up.
You okay?
It's over.
I know, Jimmy.
It's so sad.
You know, this is like my family.
I can't just let that go.
Always knew I would get
an actor like you for Rebel.
I think...
...divine fate calls the shots
for a director like me.
You know what I mean? Brando.
What, are they kidding?
Brando is too old, man.
You are fresh.
You are perfect for this part. Perfect!
We just gotta...
We gotta find somebody...
...somebody great for the girl.
No, really, what do you think of her?
I want to know.
I really want to know.
Because, Jimmy, it's just you and I.
We are on this quest together, baby.
All the way down the line.
What do you think?
She's a child star, man.
Child star, huh?
Jimmy, this girl is 17 years old...
...and she is built like the Pieta.
I know. She doesn't look it, right?
But I'm telling you that
underneath those simple childish...
...cotton frocks, she is built
like a marble masterpiece.
Jimmy.
- Jimmy, listen to me.
- What?
You're young.
You're wonderful and you're young...
...but if you'd been there
for the start of Helen Hayes' career...
...you would know
what I see in this girl.
Genius. Pure genius.
That's what I see in you, Jimmy.
Genius!
...is gonna be the first
visionary movie ever made...
...about teenagers.
You mark my word. Mark my word!
- You like jazz?
- Yeah, I like jazz.
Chet Baker mean anything to you?
Yeah.
He's playing down on the beach
tonight. You want to go?
Yeah, I'd love to.
Solid, baby.
Solid.
Pier!
Pier, listen, I have to go to New York.
I have to go to New York,
all right? Come here, look.
What?
Look, come to New York
with me, all right?
I can't go to New York!
I can't leave my mother.
Why?
You wouldn't understand.
- Look.
- What?
It'll be two weeks, okay?
Two weeks.
I have to be back to do Rebel.
I may not be here
when you come back.
- What?
- You heard me.
I may not be here when you come back.
What is that supposed to mean?
I don't want to stay here anymore!
I want to go!
James, I'm gone!
Fine, go!
I'm leaving! I'm gone!
Hey, Pier!
You're breaking my heart
Cause you're leaving
Hi, is my father here?
I want to talk to him.
He's away for a while.
I can help you with, James?
No, no. I need to talk to him.
I'll tell him that.
Are you all right, James?
Yeah.
We follow you in the newspapers.
Your father's very proud
of your success.
He is?
Of course he is, James.
Thanks.
Nice to see you, James.
- Okay.
- Goodbye.
Can't you even talk
to the boy, Winnie?
I can't.
to marry Vic Damone.
Why?
Can't she just buy one of his records?
- She's driving me bananas, Marty.
- For you, bananas is not a long drive.
Jimmy.
You guys are meant for each other.
It's perfect casting.
Pick up the phone, tell her
you love her, tell her you're sorry.
Tell her anything.
Go, call her. You got the nickels.
Pronto. Hello.
Is Pier there?
Who is this?
It's James Dean.
She does not want to talk.
Just put her on the phone, please!
No, no, no. She's out there
choosing the flowers for her wedding.
Goodbye.
I don't know where he is.
He'll show, Jack. It's a benefit
for the studio. He'll show.
I'll tell you something.
He doesn't show,
I'm gonna ruin the bastard.
Even if I have to pull
the plug on Rebel.
- Jack, you look great!
- Nice to see you.
We should get going, guys.
We'll be late.
All right, let me do it.
God!
- We're not going.
- What do you mean?
I'm not even interested
in this glitzy glamour crap, all right?
They want to wear monkey suits, fine!
Not me.
Jimmy, I spent $174 on this dress.
Come on.
This is my first tuxedo.
Jerry, why don't you give
We're spending the night.
Maybe he's laying dead somewhere.
That's no excuse.
Jack, congratulations. Fantastic.
What did I tell you, Hedda?
What did I tell you?
Oh, God.
It's an Academy Award performance.
He is a great actor. God!
I'm going to write that, Jack.
I'm so pleased, Hedda.
I'm so truly pleased.
Now, is he really as difficult...
...as everyone says he is?
- Difficult? Jimmy?
- Yes, everyone says it.
Hedda, he's like a son to me.
Oh, come on, Jack.
Come on.
He is a teensy bit difficult.
But you mustn't write that.
You have to promise me
that you will not write that.
Please.
All right.
You'll owe me one.
Nothing for nothing, huh?
- Yeah.
- It's a deal.
- Great. You know what I'm gonna write?
- What?
I'm going to write
that he is America's...
...new...
...free spirit.
Hedda, Hedda, listen.
Write he's America's newest rebel.
- Rebel?
- Yes, he's a rebel.
Like us.
