The idiots plastered the wall on the left at :59 ... the Right side wall still looks original.

[lisag19671]

This was absolutely awesome. Ive always wanted to take a trip to Griffith Park for this reason. Thank you for producing this. Excellent work!

[Nualchemist]

Great work as usual Herve! It is the strange coincidence. News is talking about the case of Natalie Wood's death tonight. What the most striking is the fact the main three actors passed away by violent death.

[TheDennismax]

One of the best on youtube.

[MsJamesdeanforever]

Thank you so much for making this! Its a great video and i am planning to go there and now i know all the exact places james dean stood at the time

[carlaiss]

Great job! I was looking for something exactly like this. very tasteful and subtle mingling of filming locations and actual place. Thanks very much!

[mirusmedia]

Good work.

[jasonwnaylor]

This is a great video!! Thanks for sharing!!

[123Jenny90]

How did he die so young?

[renwest51]

Very impressive Herve!

[mjokersam]

I love the way this was done as a" then and now tribute" combined as one video.

[bertbretherton]

Neat! Thanks for sharing this. Don't understand the 3 Dislikes - what's not to like?

[gentlearestronger]

Loved this video! :D

[altobiotero]

Wow... Keep on the good job !!

[Glinkaism1]

Very well done! Bravo!

[98griffin]

cool, what kind of camera u use for such great quality vidz/pics?

[rittismit]

jame dean ไม่มีวันจางหาย

[Atomicflash500]

If your going to match up frames ..then match them exactly or it does not work.

[ciscokid2319]

Nick Adams also died in 1968 of a drug overdose. Dennis Hopper, now, too, is gone.

[ocwj881]

Super work!



[Unloven]

Things have changed so much :(

Great video though.. makes me quite sad.

[salawa03]

Very well done ! I loved all 3 actors, that passed. R.I.P.

[Carmen6943]

Great video! Congrats! I love James Dean, that film is classic.

[gore53]

This is crazy good. Love that unmistakeably foul air of mid fifties Los Angeles: that stinging smog, only a memory now, created by unleaded gasoline... the soup de jour

[Eddy1963]

Excellant, excellant job!!! One of the very best vids I've watched on YouTube!

[TheCrazeyMe]

hey ... echt klasse video..

[selloutasaurus]

excellent editing. love the continuation of the movie soundtrack as the past melts away & the present comes into focus. very poignant & inspiring!

[shaboomers]

I love seeing the before and after shots. You did an excellent job on this.

[nocccd]

Amazing.loved it! I was just at the observatory last week!

[shum65]

@beepollen1 Many thanks honeybee, your very kind m8.....!!! :))

[shum65]

@beepollen1 It looks amazing honeybee, love that film, and what a place to grow up in..... :))

[AleXX1995XX]

great !

thanks

I loved it !

great actors !!!

[seemstome1]

How about adding additional 'memorium' for Jim Backus and others that have passed-on in this fine film ?

[LucaC1993]

It's nice to see that only few things changed in 55 years (at Griffith Observatory)!

I think that many things remain almost the same for many centuries!

[themanfromutopia1]

I enjoyed the film very much.Funny how some things havn't changed that much in nearly 50yrs.Thanks and well done.

[Unkent83]

thank u

great job :)

[THX1205]

September 30th 1955! Its been 55 years today and the Legend Still Lives! I first saw this movie on Easter Sunday 1980 and automatically became one of my favorite all time movies!

[RosenSteinRock]

Thank you very much for this video. Really special. Very good.

[thegallus]

Great video. You really should add Nick Adams to your tribute to the dead at the end of the film - death by suicide.

[Crow331]

Really cool video. You did a really nice job.

[jijtuub]

Truly a great movie you made there! I was wondering how those places would look like and how cool it would be to visit them. Kudos!

[loyalqueen]

3 idiots accidently pressed the dislike button.

[loyalqueen]

thank you so much for this!

[aryay00]

to army and gogo, when casting an actor to play a character who is under 18 the call usually goes out for an actor over 18 to play under 18, or over 12 to play under 12 because labor laws forbid working children for and excessive number of hours...say a 36 hour continuous tour. also, anyone on the set who has not completed high school or is not an emancipatsed minor must have a teacher, tutor or guardian unless it is summer break. all the talent, except some extras were over 21.

[corradogirli]

cool

[crackerHero]

the 50s were so much better than today

[maudhenno]

Un film superbe et de grands acteurs

MERCI

[Spikesgurl74]

Very cool! I just visited the observatory for the first time last month, so this was really neat to see. Thanks!

[aryay00]

@Spikesgurl74 Basically, the observatory building and the approach from the parking lot and where the knife fight occurred still look the same on the outside but its very different inside now.

[lumpagogo]

James Dean:

1. Over-actor to the max.

2. Had a head size normal for someone 7'4".

3. Was not goodlooking regardless.

4. Looked over 30 but was playing a high school kid.

4. James (Over-rated) Land-Dean.

[morrisseyArmy]

@lumpagogo Oh. Thank you, for your comment. It's not going to change what every fan feels for him. We love him, regardless. Nice try, though.

[lumpagogo]

@morrisseyArmy

For his time, Mr Dean seemed to be the Man but we have had many years to re-evaluate--he was way too old to be playing a high school kid and anyone can see it now. The large head is painfully obvious to any neutral observer. The acting may have been what fit then in but it does not fit in n'more.

James-Land-Dean--go away, mang.

[morrisseyArmy]

@lumpagogo to this day, older actors play teenage roles, that much hasn't changed. With or without the "large" head, he was still beautiful and I'm sure, I'm not the only one who agrees. His acting was heavily inspired by Marlon Brando, and James Dean's acting inspired many up and coming actors now and then. So, like it or not, "re-evaluate" or not, he is an icon to many. Nothing will change that.

[lumpagogo]

@morrisseyArmy

Dean just never looked young on screen--looked old enough to be Sal Mineo father but you're right, many still deify Dean, which is what lots of Americans refuse to stop doing as regards many stars, both living and gone.

[morrisseyArmy]

@lumpagogo the fact that he looked old on-screen isn't such a big deal. The movie is still great. People enjoyed it back then, as they do now. And also, I'm pretty sure that it's not just "Americans" that deify James or stars both living or dead. It's people around the world. I love James Dean. I think his acting was remarkable. You want bad, awful, and atrocious acting then look at the shit stars we have now, that are starring in films. Now that, my friend, is something you should worry about.

[senoritajd]

@morrisseyArmy  Thank you for defending James Dean. That guy sounds like a lot of other guys who are jealous of James' look and talent. Thank you very much!

[morrisseyArmy]

@senoritajd awww, no problem. I usually don't like to get in arguments via the internet, because I think they are pointless,but this time I felt it was necessary.

[4teepee]

When I was teenager many years ago, a friend and I used to do something dumb. We would take his roadster up to Griffith Observatory, put the car in neutral, and see if we could come down the hill, past the Greek Theatre, and all the way to the bottom without using the brakes.

[sbchelldiver]

Awesome Job!!! I see here a career as a documentarian! Congratulations Herve!!!

[jwrit]

Spooky - I can remember when the movie first came out, I guess I was 12 then. Last time I was at Griffith Observatory, it struck me that if James Dean's ghost walks anywhere, its here, not Salinas not Marion. Spooky. - jwrit

[oooowwwwdddd]

Well..... this was an excellent compelation of "then & now" photos. 5 Stars dude..... you did an excellent job! I'm a 21 yr old actor and when the director of my last film recommended Rebel to me a year ago I turned into the biggest James Dean fan. He was so real in his roles. He knew exactly how to translate his personal emotional pain into the most profound acting I've ever seen. I want to be like James Dean in all my roles.

[66FIAKGTExport95]

Great job Nicholas; I drove up to the Observatory in 1959 with my Black 49 Merc and my buddy took a photo of me were the knife fight had took place; so your production really gave me chills. Thanks; Ric Dean

[warnutztheloser]

the years fly by

[TownsendAgencyHQ]

Awesome - very nicely done.

[AbsintheColour]

Yes!!! This is GREAT!! Good Respects HerveAttia! ~

[camcamcam2010]

OMG I HAVE to go there. Im going to cry im not kidding you, this movie means so much too me and im only 16. I think im gonna cry when I go there is it all at the observatory??

[minimomaximo]

Great video, the before and after sequences of Griffith Observatory are great, the Observatory has been under restoration many times and there's been many forest fires at the park, it looks somehow a little different from the 50's but it is a true historical gem in Los Angeles, it's really great been up there, one feels like being on clouds above the city, great tourist attraction. In the 80's they'd do laser shows called "Laserium", it was great going up there at night to see the shows.

[SalMessina1]

Jimmy, R.I.P.

Un forte abbraccio

Sal

[jimmypier54]

Ive been their many times. Does anyone know what seat James Dean sat in when he Mooooooed? Im not sure if the seats have been changed

[beentakentwice]

[MrArt425]

Thanks much, brought back memories, very well done!

[marcbrillant]

Good job!

[pwkid]

Dude this is sooo crazy. Even though I know its a real place, when I watched the movie I kept thinking it was like...in its own separate world.

Its crazy to see the scenes from the 50's and the way it looks now.

[whatawhirl]

Moo.

[Alecoc14]

0:40-0:41 what the hell?

[ianj60]

I a Dean fan from Scotland and visited the observatory a few years ago but it was closed and under renovation I was gutted but your video gives me what what i missed thanks

[wodanowitz]

Five stars ??? Not enough, you deserve at least 500 stars for this GREAT work.

Was there as young man, that place still had it's magic.......

Thank you for posting!!!

[iKiffeTheSun]

J'avais entendu parler de ce film grace à mon cours d'histoire concernant les trentes glorieuses et les mutation des sociétés Et depuis je restais intringué par ce film Nottament James Dean incarnant "la fureur de vivre" Je n'avais pas réussi à me procurer le film et cette video m'a fait vivre l'ambiance de film C'est extremement bien realisé . Bonne continuation et merci pour tout .

[ABetterChad]

This is great! Thanks for making it.

[redrockrabbit]

You did a wonderful wonderful job on this.... very professional!! Thanks!

[fritzvongarrett]

You left out Nick Adams, Johnny Yuma the Rebel's death at the end of credits. He died in the 60's.

[fritzvongarrett]

You did a good job man. Excellent.

[Texasteeth56]

Back again,I looove this vid,great job

[reaqtiv8ation]

When I stumbled upon Griffith by accident it was magical.....was new to LA and just went on a drive......stumbled onto it by pure chance....it was surreal for me.

[originalfunkyfry]

awesome stuff. I was up there a number of years ago and tried to check out all these locations, but you've done a great job of pointing them out and the whole thing is very well edited. very tasteful.

[alilinzee]

Another gorgeous film...xx

[b2c3d4]

Nice! Would love to see you do more locations from Rebel.

[luchino88888888]

good job man!

[michaelsacoma]

Excellent video, thank you so much for this.

[wolfsburg7208]

Brilliant piece of work,congratulations.

[knownpleasures]

amazing...but the locations havent changed much in 50 yrs have they??

[mycatfox]

Amazing video!

[dirkbogarde44]

Very well made and put together.

[mik3la88]

Davvero eccezionale!!

[deanclift]

Ottimo lavoro amico,(good job)

[TheAtlasturco]

[bcat44]

Bravo!

[rainbowsandwar]

Wow! Great work, this video really made me smile!

[JROnstage]

Fantastic work and a beautiful tribute to those amazing actors. God rest them all.

[jagged000]

MUCH better than your last ones. I love how you first show the original scene and AFTER that how the scenery is today. Keep up the good work!

[BuckwheatsayHI]

FANTASTIC video!!!! I love how you dissolve scenes from the movie into today! Thank you for doing this!!!! Ever thought about doing Marilyn Monroe from "Seven Year Itch"? I'd love to know where that infamous sidewalk grate was.

[jaydee624]

Excellent video ,Herve.Was'nt the Griffith Observatory used in an episode of the cop show"Hunter",with Fred Dryer?

[elgrancasper]

Magnífico!! como siempre

[brusspup]

You are the best! Awesome job! 5 huge stars!

[jfbflash]

Very good, Herve. I Live about 20 miles from where James Dean is buried. Fairmount, Indiana is his hometown.

[edqu81]

james dean was just stupid he was driving almost 3x the speed limit on a 30 mph

some random guy stabbed sal and took his money

natalie was killed by her stupid drunk husband on a boat

Again, Jimmy was a cool guy but he did risky, dangerous things so even if not for that accident I'm sure he would have been killed in a different accident...or died of lung cancer by now

Natalie and Sal would be 70 years old if they were alive today..

[grabar20]

edqu81 he was driving between 65 and 70 mph,please read books it will help with your backward education,ha ha ha ha

[slyfb1982]

Very informative video. I did not know that the2 others actors died from strange circumstances.

[Dushixo]

Herve, keep those videos coming! Great work!

[CrooningRick]

Herve is the best!!

[TheHF]

Nice job!

[bithot2nite]

Very cool, Love these vids.

[DAH210774]
