Bobby was a great singer, dancer, played several istruments, did impressions,was, wrote hundreds of songs, a good actor and had a great sense of humor. His personal life, because of his illness, was in constant stress. <BR/><BR/>Kevin, being a big fan of Bobbys, wanted to bring him to the attention of of the current generation. His film has made thousands of people aware of Bobby's great talent. His CD's, DVD's and films are selling like hot cakes. Many of us cannot get enough of them. His star is being added to the Walk of fame in Las Vegas. A Darinfest is being planned to celebrate his birthday in May and will be attended by people from all over the world. This was Kevin's goal and he done just that. <BR/>In an intervierw with Larry King ( which you should watch) Kevin, Dodd and Steve explain the purpose of the film. Dodd said his mother loved it. Sandy told kievin she wouldn't change a thing. If you read one of the many books on Bobby's life, you would understand why Kevin included many things in his movie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9281117.post-1166110610702114742006-12-14T07:36:00.000-08:002006-12-14T07:36:00.000-08:00Thanks for your many thoughtful observations about...Thanks for your many thoughtful observations about the problems with this very interesting movie. I would like to say something about the soundtrack for Beyond the Sea. Spacey did get one of Darin's able music conductors and arrangers (he worked with many people over his short career), Roger Kellaway, to work with him on the music, and fans of Darin's work will catch the authenticity in the music; Darin's family made available Darin's own music scores for the pieces used. Spacey also made excellent choices from Darin's music to illustrate his life story, I feel. I have the soundtrack for the movie which I have listened to many times with pleasure.<BR/><BR/>gfdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
