But I guess itā€™s a better fit than **The Aviator** Thatā€™s the Restoration I meant, a fine movie. I agree with your assessment of the Wright Brothers movie, it appears they have a woman playing Orville, WTF? ---

If ā€œthe day after Easterā€ can be observed as such, regardless of the actual date in March or April, then the main action in **Rebel Without A Cause** takes place on that day. True, the opening scenes are late at night on that Sunday, and the closing scenes are after midnight (towards dawn) on Tuesday, but the idea that the Monday After Easter is the main setting, is fairly clear. (I doubt I would have thought of all this is the question werenā€™t so cleverly presented!) ---
