Screen Tests - Rebel Without a Cause (1955) [Behind The Scenes]

A screen test is a method of determining the suitability of an actor or actress for performing on film or in a particular role. The performer is generally given a scene, or selected lines and actions, and instructed to perform in front of a camera to see if they are suitable. The developed film is later evaluated by the relevant production personnel such as the casting director and the director. The actor may be asked to bring a prepared monologue or alternatively, the actor may be given a script to read at sight. In some cases, the actor may be asked to read a scene, in which another performer reads the lines of another character. Rebel Without a Cause, American film drama, released in 1955, that is a classic tale of teenage rebellion and angst. The movie featured James Dean in one of his final roles; he died one month before the release. Marlon Brando’s The Wild One (1953) popularized juvenile delinquency in films, and Rebel Without a Cause was one of the better movies that dealt with the topic. The film was partially shot in black and white, but the studio then stopped production and reshot in colour. A strong supporting cast included Dennis Hopper, Edward Platt, and Jim Backus, who received praise for his memorable role as Dean’s henpecked father. All three lead actors met untimely deaths. Dean died in a car crash at age 24; Mineo was stabbed to death at 37; and Wood drowned amid mysterious circumstances at 43. Their deaths only added to the cultish appeal surrounding the film.
