Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean

September 9 - 25, 2016

In a small town dime store in West Texas, the "Disciples of James Dean" gather for their twentieth anniversary reunion. Now middle-aged women, they were teenagers when Dean filmed GIANT two decades ago in nearby Marfa. One of them, an extra in the film, has a child whom she says was conceived with Dean during the shoot. The ladies' hilarious and touching reminiscences mingle with flashbacks to their youth; then the arrival of a stunning but familiar stranger sets off a series of confrontations that smash their delusions and expose bitter disappointments.
