Not such a bad idea
In the 'definitely not my department' department....
Critics are unhappy with a CGI movie that inserts real images of James Dean into the animation.
I've never seen any of his movies. I watch LOTS of movies and TV shows from that era, but for some reason none of Dean's products have ever caught my attention.
However: Dean's offscreen side showed up in car magazines back then, and in car websites now. It's clear that he was a techie type. There's one candid pic showing Dean, carrying a briefcase, getting into his work car, a plain '55 Chevy 150 business sedan. Looks more like an engineer going to work at GM, not a movie star.
So I suspect the real Dean would have enjoyed this idea.
