While a movie about James Dean starring Robert Pattinson didn’t quite take off the way one would think, "Life" is nonetheless an intriguing proposition with Anton Corbijn ("The American," "Control") behind the camera, and Dane DeHaan playing the tragic cinematic icon. This isn’t a movie about his death, but rather the specific moment in Dean’s life that made him a legend in images.
Written by Luke Davies ("Candy"), the movie chronicles the relationship between Dean and Life photographer, Dennis Stock, who manages to break through to the ephemeral star and capture the aura that would make him beloved by millions.
The movie itself is a bit mixed (here’s our review) but you can see for yourself when it opens on December 4th. Watch a new international trailer and clip below. [Life The Movie]
