Life


In 1955 an ambitious freelance photographer Dennis Stock (Robert Pattinson) spent time with a largely unknown young actor James Dean (Dane DeHaan) who he believed was destined for stardom and fame. The photos he captured of Dean were published in Life magazine later acquiring almost as iconic a status as that of their by then deceased subject.

'Life' is a rather languid retelling of those months in which Stock and Dean, each for their own self interest, tolerated the experience to further their personal and career ambitions.
