Back Track 001: You can wake up now, the universe has ended. | Rebel Without a Cause (1955)

<p>I'm an oldie at heart. It seems like I always want to have been born in an earlier decade. There just had to be a series created for films before 1990. For the first 'Back Track' episode we're talking Rebel Without a Cause from 1955. Starring James Dean, Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo this is one of my favorites from the classic Hollywood era. Me and Charles had a ball talking this modern look at 50s teen society. </p><p>Some things we discussed are stories from the set, who we would cast nowadays, the infinite layers of this story, and of course the immense acting style of James Dean. </p><p>Off-topic rants include: Josh Hartnett, swooning over old Marlon Brando screen tests, and theorize what may have happened to Natalie Wood that fateful night</p><p> </p><p>---</p><p>Get <strong>BONUS</strong> episodes on 90s TV (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Felicity, Dawson's Creek, and more...) and to support the show, join the PATREON! <a href="https://www.patreon.com/fashiongrunge" target="_blank">www.patreon.com/fashiongrunge</a></p><p><strong>GIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!</strong></p><p>Hosts: Lauren <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lauren_melanie/" target="_blank"><strong>@lauren_melanie</strong></a> <i>& </i>Charles <a href="https://www.instagram.com/charleshaslam/" target="_blank"><strong>@charleshaslam</strong></a></p><p> Music by Den-Mate <a href="https://www.instagram.com/imdenmate/" target="_blank"><strong>@imdenmate</strong></a></p><p>Follow Fashion Grunge Podcast </p><p>Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fashiongrungepod/" target="_blank"><strong>@fashiongrungepod</strong></a></p><p>Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/fgrungepod"><strong>@fgrungepod</strong></a></p><p>Letterboxd <a href="https://letterboxd.com/fashiongrunge/" target="_blank"><strong>Fashion Grunge Podcast</strong></a></p><p>TikTok <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fashiongrungepod" target="_blank"><strong>@fashiongrungepod</strong></a></p>
