“He would be bothered when someone would say he was mean and disrespectful. Because actually, he wasn’t. They took silence to mean he cared little or nothing for them. They didn’t have the insight, or didn’t care to exercise the insight, in knowing that he was a shy boy that just didn’t know how to approach them. Instead of making an attempt to approach him, they just, well, they just wrote him off.”
Lew Bracker on James Dean
From The James Dean Story, 1957
