Have a little read: ... Youth Culture and the New Left of the 1960s A Rebellion of Youth Many historians describe youth culture of the unturbulent 1950s as a precursor of the openly turbulent 1960s. In this view, the cultural contradictions of the 1950s,and the struggles that grew out of them,were the first shock waves of the countercultural earthquake that shook mainstream American society in the 1960s. Teen films(like James Dean's "Rebel without a cause") and rock'n'roll musicians (like Elvis Presley) served as oppositional benchmarks for the emerging counterculture. The rebelliousness in Presley's music and in several teen films attracted the restless youth of the 50s. The more adults condemned rock'n'roll music, the more teenagers loved it. The teens elevated the characters played by James Dean("Rebel Without a Course") or Marlon Barndo("The Wild One") to cult status, because for their overturning of respectable society's morels.
