Great Characters James Dean Fountain Pen Special Edition F.
James Byron Dean 1931-1955 was an American actor, cultural icon, symbol of the disenchantment and social alienation of teenagers of the time, perfectly represented by his most acclaimed film, Rebel Without a Cause 1955, in which he plays the role of the tormented teenager Jim Stark.
This edition features a red precious resin body and cap, a reference to the red leather jacket worn by Jean in the film, while the pattern is inspired by his jeans. The clip represents a gun, homage to the famous scene from the 1956 film The Giant. The cap ring is engraved with one of James Dean's most famous phrases: Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today. (Dream as if you were to live forever. Live as if you were to die today.) The cone is engraved with the coordinates of the James Dean memorial.
The overall design is inspired by the knife James Dean uses in the movie Rebel Without a Cause. The clip pays homage to the rifle from the film The Giant. The pattern engraved on the body and hood takes inspiration from the jeans the actor wears in Rebel Without a Cause.
