    Plot Outline: A rebellious young man with a troubled past comes to a new town, finding friends and enemies.
    Plot: Jim Stark is the new kid in town. He has been in trouble elsewhere; thats why his family has had to move before. Here he hopes to find the love he doesnt get from his middle-class family. Though he finds some of this in his relation with Judy, and a form of it in both Platos adulation and Rays real concern for him, Jim must still prove himself to his peers in switchblade knife fights and "chickie" games in which cars race toward a seaside cliff.

    Crazy Credits: We know about 4 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
    Filmed 100% in New York city.

    Continuity: Jimmy puts his left hand through the window, but its a right hand that turns the radio knob.

    Trivia: There are 28 entries in the trivia list - like these:
    • Director Nicholas Ray researched L.A. gangs by riding around with them for several nights.
    • For the knife fight between Jim (James Dean) and Buzz (Corey Allen), the actors used real switchblades and protected themselves by wearing chainmail under their vests.
    • James Dean did not get malaria during filming, as some have reported. Nick Adams had a relapse of an old case of malaria he got while he was a merchant marine.
