James Dean in Worldwar

James Dean was an American actor and sex symbol. He starred in the 1965 movie The Battle of Chicago with Bridgette Bardot. The film was not an accurate depiction of the actual battle, but the film was a huge domestic hit. It even played well in Race-held territory. Years later, a more matured James Dean starred in the movie Rescuing Private Renfall.
