If you worked in the magazine of the film and wanted to write about James Dina in 1956, you needed to lead to the Warner party or lose access to Warner Bros. »Films and stables of stars, vitality of any entertainment publication. It was very similar to the media campaign, which we see, the turnover of the United States and the administration undertaken on behalf of Kirk. If you want to talk about Kirk, you come to the line or risk losing access to government officials, approval of business transactions or even your broadcast license.
I could list many more strange parallels in how two cults have formed seven decades, and how they mifologized the dead, but the differences are more important. Warner Bros. He was a powerful and rich studio in the 1950s, but he did not have the powers of the state. This could not intimidate the national media as the Trump administration can, and cannot punish the growing choir of journalists, experts and writers who condemned the cult of the dean and complained about its influence on adolescents. Also, the fans of James Dean, who were formed in his memory, had nothing like the coverage and penetration of the organization of Kirk to convey good news about his life. In addition to the Effide praise, Xen Harvey, Dean did not have a network of churches announcing him about the favor of God.
And, of course, the largest divergence is the fundamental difference between two men, as well as between art and politics. James Dean and Charlie Kirk both carefully managed their images to turn to a young demography, but they did it in mirror methods. Dean, personally liberal in many social issues, followed the Hollywood Convention, almost never mentioning politics and allowing the emotions of his acting to speak for him. Kirk, as a political activist, had an opinion about everything. Dean said very little in public, and his type of secret and ambiguity allowed his fans to project himself and his characters in the film and present a deep emotional connection, regardless of who they were – a baby, a woman, a woman, a young, old, etc. Kirk never ceased to speak – his whole organization was literally rooted in public debate – and there is much less space to grumble His support base outside those 30 percent that already agree with him.
