~for more photos of James Dean sites and memorabilia go to MyDeanScraps~
it's funny how this recently taken photo of the main square in Fairmount looks exactly how it did when James Dean roamed these streets, and even more so when converted to black and white...

(regardless of what the above says, I wasn’t the one who submitted this…I applogize to whoever did…Tumblr must have made an error)
there! bunny lured you in to consider his question, his quest...bunny is going to discover james dean now courtesy of your wonderful blog...i will solve the mystery of dean's beatification!
haha, well, solve away! :)
I personally thnk that Zac Efron looks more like Sal Mineo. There's definitely some resemblance there (I think anyway).
Hmmm, that's a good point. Thanks for sharing!
James Dean 1956 Magazine
Fairmount, Indiana
One of my favorite books ever. I was so happy to find this edition at an antique store in Bird-In-Hand, PA for $6
Um, No
"The fact that Robert Pattinson is starring in a movie about James Dean is surely enough to make any Twi-hard's heart go pitter-patter." (article)
Thank you for that awful opening sentence, but actually, no, I'm more excited that the new James Dean movie is about James Dean.
Dean Fact
T-shirt sales soared after James Dean wore one in Rebel Without a Cause.

I just go to the look alike contest at the annual James Dean festival, haha.
My whole life has been spent in dramatic display of expression.

4 James Dean Look Alikes
People always seem to be saying ___ is the next James Dean. Movie stars do have the tendency to copy from the greats of past because they’re posers–wait, what?, but what is usually meant by that is their looks, not personality or interests.
The following 4 are actors I’ve heard being compared to Dean the most, but I’m sure there are many others as well. While I admit I’m not an expert on any of the following actors, I do know quite a bit about Dean, and there’s a lot more to him than just his good looks. But since looks are the easiest similarity to distinguish, that’s mostly what this post will be on.
I don’t think any of these actors really try to copy Dean (since he has a domino effect on culture); I just think it’s fun to point it out. Prepare for good-natured humor.
4. Zac Efron
Usually I don’t see the resemblance, but Zac Efron looks a little like James Dean in this picture with the hair combed back and white t-shirt. But, of course, I’m sure his hair is styled. Dean never actually combed his hair; it was just naturally good. And he started the t-shirt trend, not followed it.
3. Rob Pattinson
The picture above is actually pretty cool in showing the similar profiles they shared, but other than the shape, their faces don’t look that alike. His wild hair mimics Dean’s a little, and some clothing choices reflect on his style.
2. Ryan Gosling
Oh how I want to rip on this guy, but I’d only be doing it based on how much adoration he gets. I’ve heard so many times that Gosling is the new Dean; he’s being compared to Dean all the time. Could this be true? The short answer is NO. He may have the looks, but he’s no Dean, and couldn’t even possibly compare. But I have to give Gosling kudos, though, on wearing the same glasses (or maybe he’s just a poser) as Dean (at least in this picture).
1. James Franco
Now before you think I’m about to harp on James Franco—I’m not. Franco is the exception to this snarky comment chain. He may not look it in many pictures, but James does look a lot like, well, James (extra points to having the same first name). Not to mention he did star Dean is the biopic, James Dean, and did a great job according to most fans.
So Franco comes close, but, like the rest, he’s still no Dean.
