Synopsis
East of Eden (1955) follows a restless youth in California’s Salinas Valley whose longing for paternal affection fuels rivalry and emotional turmoil within his family.

This family drama blends psychological intensity and biblical allegory in a brooding study of guilt, rejection, and the search for identity.
