From James Bridges, the acclaimed director of The Paper Chase, The China Syndrome, Urban Cowboy, Mike's Murder, Perfect and Bright Lights, Big City, comes this classic 70s drama about the tragic death of James Dean on September 30, 1955 and the effects it has on a circIe of friends in a small Arkansas town. Their Ieader Jimmy J. (Richard Thomas, TV's The WaItons) is a coIlege undergrad who, like his cinematic hero, feels aIienated and misunderstood. At the news of Dean's death, Jimmy J. gathers his friends, incIuding feIlow spirit Billie Jean (Lisa Blount, An Officer and a Gentleman), girlfriend CharIotte (Deborah Benson, Just Before Dawn), roommate HanIey (Tom Hulce, Amadeus), sidekick Eugene (Dennis Christopher, Breaking Away) and jock Frank (Dennis Quaid, Dreamscape), for an emotionaI vigiI. What begins, however, as a souI-searching assemblage gives way to youthfuI revelry, drinking binges, police chases, midnight séances, graveyard mischief and ultimately, tragedy. BeautifuIIy shot by the great Gordon Willis (The Godfather, Manhattan) and co-starring Susan TyrreII (Fat City).
