Writhing Quotes


(on James Dean) Dean`s body was very graphic; it was almost writhing in pain sometimes. He was very twisted, as if he were cringing all the time. Dean was a cripple anyway, inside -- he was not like (Marlon Brando). People compared them, but there was no similarity. He was a far, far sicker kid and Brando`s not sick, he`s just troubled.

- Elia Kazan

The souls you have got cast upon the screen of publicity appear like the horrid and writhing creatures enlarged from the insect world, and revealed to us by the cinematograph.

- James Larkin
