Is Anakin just a series characters from classic 1950's American movies?

ep1) He seems to almost identical the little boy 'Joey' from Shane. In fact Joeys whole relationship with QuiGonn seems a little 'too' similar to that of Joey and Shane. ep2) He seems to be Jim Stark (James Dean) from Rebel Without a cause. The tantrums, the pent up agression ... the haircut (<- just kidding) ep3) Who know…

ep3) Who know What mid-1950's film character might he be? Any ideas?

Yeah I know I'm just grasping at straws here but has anyone else noticed these parallels? It can't just be a coincidence? Add these to the fact that Lucas would have been around 10 years old (or early teens) at the time he probably saw these films and it seems to further back this theory. I know personally anyway that the films that have had to most effect on me were when I was around that age.
