My fascination with the legendary actress, Sandra Dee began when I was very young. I first saw her in a movie called, “If A Man Answers” where she co-stared with her then husband, icon, Bobby Darin. Later, I saw more of her movies…
Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin met on the set of the movie, “Come September”, which was filmed in Italy. They were married right away and had a son named, Dodd Darin. Their marriage only lasted 7 years, but it was a match for an ideal image but rocky in reality.
I of course, was not aware of the rocky road they both traveled through their lives… I was just overwhelmingly captivated by her beauty and innocent image. She was what I wanted to be. I have added a page above, dedicated to her, with pictures and video clips.
I am saddened that many today are unaware of her, other than the tainted-fun-poking made at her by the famous movie, “Grease”. Most people are not aware that Sandra Dee is a real person who was the ideal of the teenage population in the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Sadly, Sandra Dee died on Feb. 20, 2005 from kidney failure. Most people don’t know this, but the morning that she passed away… I had a dream that she had died. It was so real. I spoke with her on the phone and then saw news reports of her passing (in my dream). As soon as I awoke, I told my husband. It was so real that he started looking on-line and on television to see if it had really happened. There was absolutely no news about it until later that night. Once we heard that it had actually happened, we just looked at each other in amazement. Weird, I know… but it happened.
I hope you will take a look at my Sandra Dee page and learn a little more about her. I am going to add a lot more information about her soon.
