David Hurn: Self - Interviewee, Photographer

Quotes 

  • Self - Interviewee : [on James Dean]  The people who raised him from the age of 9 to about 19 were his aunt and uncle and they welcomed me with open arms. They were just extraordinarily friendly and, until this day, I'm a close friend of the families. But, in the mix of being there, I could sense that Jimmy wasn't really ever going to return. And what it pointed up though is tragedy of Jimmy incapable of understanding what he had. He was just little alienated soul that bounced around in search of God knows what. One morning we got up and he said, "Come on, I wanna show you something." He walked into this furniture store, into another room, and in that other room were coffins. And he jumped into one. So, we went through all these childish expressions that he did within the coffin. And at the very end, sort of grabbed him and I said, "Now, sit still. Just look at me. Sit up and look at me." And within that image I would like to believe that it shows how lost he was. He lived a kind of contradictory life being on the cusp of being a star.

  • Self - Interviewee : [last words]  The world is bonkers. The film world is bonkers.
