Robert Pattinson&#8217;s Tyler Hawkins in Allen Coulter&#8217;s romantic drama Remember Me (above, with Emilie de Ravin, Pierce Brosnan) has been compared to James Dean&#8217;s characters in the 1955 classics East of Eden and Rebel Without a Cause.
Created by Will Fetters, the early 21st-century Tyler feels he&#8217;s misunderstood by his wealthy father (Brosnan), has a troubled relationship with a young woman (de Ravin), and is undecided about his future. Dean&#8217;s thoroughly misunderstood mid-20th-century characters have serious issues with both parents, have budding love affairs with young women (Julie Harris, Natalie Wood), and would probably have difficulty spelling the word &#8220;adulthood.&#8221; Rebelliousness against accepted social values and tragedy of some sort or other are to be found in all three films.

Robert Pattinson&#8217;s REMEMBER ME &#038; Critics: Part II
 Robert Pattinson himself (above, with director Allen Coulter) has earned mixed reviews for his performance as the rebellious Tyler Hawkins in the romantic melodrama Remember Me, Pattinson&#8217;s first starring vehicle since he became the idol of millions of tweens &#8212; and not so tweens &#8212; the world over. Many reviewers compared his Tyler to James Dean&#8217;s rebels in Rebel Without a Cause, East of Eden, and Giant &#8212; though not necessarily in a positive manner. Remember Me was written by Will Fetters. 
The Associated Press‘ Jake Coyle says that &#34;the young actor has an unmistakable  screen presence. However[,] in Remember Me [] he pours it on thickly and self-consciously. … He [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dennis Stock, the man responsible for the Life magazine  photo of  James Dean in an overcoat and with a cigarette in his mouth while walking down  rain-soaked Times Square, died Monday night at a hospital in  Sarasota, Fla. Diagnosed with cancer, he contracted pneumonia a few days ago. Stock was 81.
  According to the Los Angeles Times obit, Stock met Dean at a 1954 party hosted by Nicholas Ray, who would direct the actor in Rebel Without a Cause (1955).
  The Times Square photo  was part of a photo  essay published in Life in 1955, which ominously included an image of Dean  posing  inside a coffin in a funeral home [...]]]></description>

Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight

With Heath Ledger in mind,  Scott Feinberg remembers the various posthumous Oscar nominations and wins &#8212; 53 individuals for a total of 70 nominations and 13  wins, as per Feinberg&#8217;s count &#8212; in his Los Angeles Times blog:
&#34;As you may recall, the  announcement of last year&#8217;s Oscar nominations was quickly overshadowed  by the tragic news that broke later that same day: Heath Ledger,  the actor best known for his Oscar-nominated performance in Brokeback  Mountain (2005), had been found dead of an accidental drug overdose at  the age of 28. It&#8217;s a terrible shame that Ledger will not be alive on  nomination day this year, because his name [...]]]></description>

Lily white Fox star Jeanne Crain was nominated for an Oscar for trying (and failing) to pass for a light-skinned &#34;black&#34; (read: mixed  ancestry) girl trying to pass for a lily white girl. Fellow nominee Ethel Waters comforts Crain: &#34;You cayn&#8217;t act, but you&#8217;re darned purty.&#34; (Actually, Crain could be excellent. Check out Henry King&#8217;s nostalgic Margie.)
