If this deleted scene had remained in EAST OF EDEN, it might have explained more about the relationship between James Dean and Richard Davalos, as well as their dynamic with their father (Raymond Massey). And it would have been Davalos' best scene -- but Dean may have agreed, because I get the feeling Dean is trying to ruin it.
Elia Kazan once said that while Julie Harris was attempting to help Dean, this being his first major film, he was simultaneously trying to sabotage her.
