An epic Texas film. One of the three James Dean appearances, who died just after production finished and posthumously nominated for the best actor oscar.
Touches on some incredibly touchy topics for the time, women's independence and racism, especially as aimed at Mexicans in Texas.
Surprisingly still relevant I think to a Texas audience.
