Dodd is now 60 years old. He has been married to his first and only wife since 1993, They have two children. They have found the love and happiness in their marriage that his folks had hoped for.
@@patriciahedges729 ~~I know, right~~The family's whole story is so heartbreaking~~I just watched a vid where Dodd is 60~~Still very handsome~~I sure miss the old days, actors and actresses and movies from back in the day~~But at least I get to watch them online~~Have a nice day~~💖💖💖
His dad seemed to be extremely humble and down to earth , he didn’t let fame get to him , and he was always smiling and laughing despite all the negative the universe threw at him
This guy is so impressive. He shows intelligence and common sense. He is not the typical child of wealthy Hollywood star parents. He is a breath of fresh air. He gives me hope for his generation. And he is beautiful and handsome. God bless him.
Judy Berends I read that Dodd co-produced a stage play about his parents a few years ago. I was hoping it would be turned into a movie, but no news yet. When Beyond the Sea, the movie about Sandra and Bobby was first announced many years ago, the stars were supposed to be Drew Barrymore and Johnny Depp, which seemed like perfect casting to me, but when the movie was finally made about 10 years later, the stars became Kate Bosworth and Kevin Spacey, which was a big mistake. I guess because he produced the movie, nobody, even Dodd, could stop Kevin from playing Bobby.
I agree about Dodd. He's truly unique among children of Hollywood stars. It's good that he has gone into producing instead of into acting. I wish he had produced the movie Beyond the Sea. He would have chosen the best to play Sandra and Bobby. I didn't like Kate Bosworth as Sandra and, especially, Kevin Spacey as Bobby at all. I also hated that scene where Bobby seemed to be complaining about Sandra being known as Gidget. Sandra was most known for Gidget but she was known also for other classics like Imitation of Life, A Summer Place, Portrait in Black, The Reluctant Debutante, Tammy Tell Me True, etc.
What a guy. The Darins did a good job with their son. He was truly loved and it shows. What a class act. He is very handsome as was his father....looks just like him. We still have a piece of Bobby still with us.
Dodd has a strong resemblance to his father and seems like a very nice man.. And it's heartwarming that he has a happy long-. time marriage. His parents would be very happy about the life he's made for himself!
Dodd, is the splitting image of Bobby Darin! So handsome; just like his father! I also enjoyed the footage of Sandy, Dodd and Bobby playing the guitar, sitting around the table; with Dodd as a child! Just beautiful! Great interview!
Dodd , your father was the best singer of all time. His voice was unique, and so beautiful . Bobby Darin is immortal and Sandra Dee loved him so much.. You are a beautiful man too. God bless you always.
In the late 80's I owned a small Italian restaurant in Point Loma, Every day Dodd would come in with his girl friend at the time. Dodd did not tell me that he was the son of Bobby Darin till we became friends. And I must say that when he told me I looked at him and saw the resemblance. He looked so much like his dad. Dodd is down to earth. A fine young man.
That is so cool. I’m glad that you got to have that experience with him. Thank you for sharing it with us. I’ve always been a fan of Bobby Darin’s music and now, after watching this video and reading your comment, I must read Dodd’s book. 🙂
You can hear him pause and give thanks in most all of the sentences. Truly humble, respectful and caring. World, get a clue, this is real Greatness. RIP Bobby Darin.
What a beautiful soul Dodd Darin has he is the spitting image of his beautiful father and he's just so sweet and down to earth his wife is so blessed to have such a handsome and super kind man Dodd bless you and your family you are an amazing man we love love you so much
Dodd Darin is incredibly articulate and insightful considering his Hollywood upbringing and his parent's struggles. Could listen to him speak for hours.
Me too ! He across as incredibly intelligent and not only soft spoken but well spoken ! As others here have noted, his late parents I am sure would be so very very proud of him !
What a wonderful son these two fabulous entertainers raised! I read Dodd’s book when it came out and considering the hardships both his parents endured during their lifetimes, God gave them a sweet, caring son to ease their burdens. I loved all of Sandra’s movies and still play Bobby’s CDs. I was a teen when “Mack the Knife” was a huge hit and I remember riding around in the summer listening to it on KDWB in Minneapolis. Those were the days!
Now I MUST get the book. I always regarded Bobby Darin as a top notch entertainer. It's a great satisfaction to see that his son held him in such high regard. We both lost our dads at 12 years old. I had the good fortune to hunt and fish and explore with my day. My dad used to sit in the living room after dinner and sing while playing guitar and was totally committed to his family.
‘Beyond the sea’ is one of my favourite songs even though it was recorded a few years before I was born, and Bobby Darin was an exceptional and so very talented man in many respects. I’ve never seen his son before, but it was like Bobby suddenly being back among us again. The likeness is remarkable and heartwarming.
When I was about 17, I went to a Bobby Darín and Trini Lopez show in Leicester. During the interval I and another girl were allowed to go to the dressing-room to get autographs. Trini Lopez was a bit off-hand but Bobby Darin was very nice. When I asked if I could try his guitar, he showed me how to play finger-style. I've never forgotten how kind he was and how he helped me to improve my playing.
I'm kind of surprised or taken aback about Trini López being 'a bit off-hand' with you. I once spoke to him over The telephone off the air in an interview he was giving to a radio station here in New York City, and he was very polite, nice.
I remember reading about him when he was a little boy. Because his parents were always covered by press, and always in the fan magazines, he was often in there too. It's so great to know that this little boy turned into a wonderful man who stood beside his mother and was able to get through losing his father, that he wasn't consumed by Hollywood. His father would be so proud of him. And Bobby Darin was a great entertainer.
What a handsome boy he is. He had gorgeous parents though and I love hearing him speak about his parents. Never read his book but I definitely have plans on doing,
Makes me so sad that Bobby died so young. He was so handsome. My favorite movie with those two is If a man answers. Everything was so much better back then.
+Patricia Lawson I saw him in a small theater in California in the '60s. He was one of the half-dozen greatest entertainers of the time. In my opinion, today's entertainers aren't even close.
Todd seems such a great guy his parents would be so proud of him & he looks the spitting imagine of his dad. This book is a fitting tribute to both his parents who while dealing with much adversary acomplished so very much.
Dodd looks so much like his dad but there's a little of his mom in his smile and cheeks. I heard that he has a daughter who looks a lot like his mom. Hopefully, we'll get to see her in movies someday.
I agree. Because of his dark coloring people see the paternal resemblance, but if you look past that part, his mouth and eyes remind me very much of his mother.
Tons of best wishes. We were School students when that great film "Come September" was visible on the big screen. It has been years and years ....... "When you see a gentleman bee round......." ... I still remember as if it were yesterday.
@@elftails As much as I love him, up until his later years, Bobby wasn’t modest at all, he was well known for being arrogant. He just had the goods to back it up😁
What a delightful man. I’m glad he’s not in show business, and has a loving family. You can tell he adored he’s parents. And boy, isn’t he the spitting image of his Dad. I loved Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee, sorry they didn’t have a long happy life together. 😢
Dodd does seem like a humble, smart, intelligent, kind, gentle & articulate fellow. And yes, very good looking ! His dad & mom clearly did a wonderful job raising him !
Bobby Darin was one of those entertainers that defied category. He was in a league of his own, night club crooner, rock and roll idle, gifted folk singer, he did it all and he did it all masterfully. We can only wonder where his career would have taken him had he lived even an average lifespan. His son has good reason to be proud.
What a darling guy! He looks just like Bobby! I loved them both! Sandra was such an absolutely darling lady. Gosh! She was so pretty and just wonderful!
The first I noticed his eyes, so, I think, particularly his eyes are his father. Maybe his eyebrows are his mother but the eyes definitely his GREAT father. He is handsome Man.
Getting to know more about Bobby Darrin and Sandra Dee you realize how special they both were, but they were only human and had their ups and downs just like everyone else. Stardom is not " great all the time" . It brings with it an illusion that slowly disappears and leaves one in a world that is hard to cope with once the glitter and lights go out. The best accomplishment Bobby Darrin and Sandra Dee had in life is their son who turned out to be a wonderful young man. He was their greatest gift in life.
Totally agree. Not ;like some celebrity children who wrote books to shame their famous parents or mothers and bank on that. God bless him, such a lovely decent man, genuine.....
@@deedeebellina683 Yes, I believe that they both did an outstanding job, with Dodd. It's awful that he lost his dad that young, but at least he had his mom, for many years. I'm a huge fan of Sandra Dee. It would've been nice to have her name mentioned in this clip, at least once. Or maybe have her name written, somewhere, in the description.
Dodd is a beautiful mix of his sweet parents. Both his parents were wonderful. Being they both had some past issues, it’s very sad they couldn’t make it though life together. Brought us lots of joy!
Oh how I loved Bobby Darin! I was only 7 when he died and remember just crying so hard. Dodd looks so much like him!! Thank you for posting this interview!
He looks so much like his father! He is well spoken, intelligent, and handsome. His eyes and face are clear, peaceful, and full of love for his parents. It sure is nice to see.
+ his eyes and face are gorgeous......I love how he looks like his dad. I have his dad's OLD CDs that were not heard on radio. I lived each day of the 50s, 60s and enjoyed his tunes. But in England, I bought his father's OLD big band type songs that showed Bobby's real voice..magnificent.
Dodd is a great son. Were lucky to have him as a part of those two legends, Bobby & Sandra to remember them by. My moms only brother had the same illness as Bobby did and we lost him when he was only 25yrs of age, in 1953.
I am glad I saw this. I saw Dodd skate board past my house on north st in Bayonne NJ in the mid 1970s. Sandra Dees Grand mother lived 3 house next to mine what a great son Dodd.So glad I saw this clip I wondered what he was doing now. Walter Krall Bayonne.
When I was 14 in about 1957 your dad was my idol. I loved him in a way I still can never describe. From 1962 thru 1973 I sang, toured lounges both in North America and abroad, mostly in Europe. Anyway, blessings to you, your family and thank you for your families endurance and stamina thru the years. God loves his children and though we don't understand why, some who get the gift of music are here for short times and others just don't ever seem to go away. I wore out my45 RPM of Mack The Knife. Love to all.
WHAT a kind.sweet man...his parents raised him VERY WELL...hope he's well....l adored Sandra Dee..so beautiful..and what talent his dad had......the son was blessed
Bobby Darren is one of my most favorite singer/actors ever. I watched a t.v. special he put on right before surgery. His talent and sexy good looks made it a great experience to watch. I was so saddened to learn he didn't survive that surgery he had shortly after that show. His handsome son had a Father to be proud of.
Albeit he is the spitting image of his dad, I noticed in the clip when Dodd is a young child, I can also see his mom in him through his facial expressions. He mostly favored his dad, but the facial expressions are clearly his mom. What a beautiful child he was & today is quite a handsome man.
12/22/2019 I bought "Come September" recently and love watching it over and over. There is something very special happening when Bobby and Sandra are on screen together! Dodd is gorgeous, like his parents.
Sandra and Bobby can be proud that they brought such a fine person into this world. A dead ringer for his Dad, but his personality seems more like his Mom. It was a great book.
So handsome like his father. How I miss Bobby, fell in love the first time I saw him perform. He was one of our greatest entertainers and made every song perfect. Such a lost way too soon.
❤️🙏🏻Thank you for sharing some of your fathers life with us! Great artist ! Bobby and Sandra Dee will always be remembered through his songs and her acting, so sad! 😔.
Loved Darrin and Sandy. You as well, Dodd. I remember the movie. Kevin Spacey did -- an outstanding job, portraying your dad.. I mean: I understand what your mom went through. She had a hard time, for sure. And, you dad as well. With his health. I miss them both. Your parents were the best. Look at what they made. They made you, Dodd. God Bless you!!
Wow, he looks like Bobby so much but I see Sandra in those beautiful eyes. She had the most magnificent doe eyes. Gorgeous!! Such a lovely girl. She too was a great actress.
Dodds Darin has the best of both his parents... hes a classy intelligent man , RIP Bobby and Sandra...thanks for the memories. Two talented people..Bobby was one of the Best singers EVER...Sandra was gorgeous and a great actress..both gone too young
I can't believe Bobby Darin died at such a young age at 37 years. What a terrible waste. This guy could have brought us such wonderful music for years. His son sure looks like Bobby.
"I was a cute kid, what happened?" Became a handsome man! I was always besotted with his father and I devoured Dodd's book Dream Lovers. Excellent job, Dodd, and great to see you here!
He looks so much like his extraordinary father that it is amazing! What a handsome son Sandra Dee has & he was such a living and caring son to his dear mother( adored both of his parents! I wish thus fine man the very, very best! God Bless him & his beautiful family!
Dodd sure had his daddy's beautiful eyes. Bobby would be so proud of him today. A good looking, intelligent soul who is left with wonderful childhood memories. Bobby & Sandra lived a beautiful love story told by Dodd in his book Dream Lovers. I grew up in the 60's & 70's and loved to hear Bobby Darin's songs on my radio. I still love his music today.

Well his dad died when Dodd was 12 years old. That is the real tragedy, his dad not living to see him as the fine man he grew up to be.
His mom is SANDRA DEE. A celebrity in her own right.
I'm so glad that Dodd was close to his dad and helped save his mom he is a terrific son
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT DODD DARIN!❤
Can Dodd sing like his Father-Bobby ?
Bobby was a genius when you look at what he accomplished in such a short time. His songs will live forever!
Sandra Dee is unforgettable.
Yes! Gidget
I found her unforgettable in A Summer Place.

Wow!! The spitting image of his dad. Fine, intelligent young man.
So Handsome, articulate, and talented!! Beautiful testimony to his parents 💕 Gone to Glory 🌈 Sorely Missed by So Many ❤️ So glad I found this gem!

I am glad I saw this. I saw Dodd skate board past my house on north st in Bayonne NJ in the mid 1970s. Sandra Dees Grand mother lived 3 house next to mine what a great son Dodd.So glad I saw this clip I wondered what he was doing now. Walter Krall Bayonne.
When I was 14 in about 1957 your dad was my idol. I loved him in a way I still can never describe. From 1962 thru 1973 I sang, toured lounges both in North America and abroad, mostly in Europe. Anyway, blessings to you, your family and thank you for your families endurance and stamina thru the years. God loves his children and though we don't understand why, some who get the gift of music are here for short times and others just don't ever seem to go away. I wore out my45 RPM of Mack The Knife. Love to all.
WHAT a kind.sweet man...his parents raised him VERY WELL...hope he's well....l adored Sandra Dee..so beautiful..and what talent his dad had......the son was blessed
Very well spoken and intelligent man.
Wow... what a story, I need to read this book... Dodd Darin is so goegeous, he looks like Bobby more than Sandra Dee, who was beautiful...
Thanks for that and glad you knew how much your Dad loved you before you lost him. Can see the love you have for both of your parents. Take care.
I wish that I could have met bobby and got to know him , we lost a very good man at age 37 , that was a big loss. , BUT I STILL SING HIS SONGS .
love the book...loved your parents ,your a great son Dodd
Bobby Darren is one of my most favorite singer/actors ever. I watched a t.v. special he put on right before surgery. His talent and sexy good looks made it a great experience to watch. I was so saddened to learn he didn't survive that surgery he had shortly after that show. His handsome son had a Father to be proud of.
Bobby Darin was awe inspiring. Very unique. Gave us feel good music. Great memories. Gone too soon.
Albeit he is the spitting image of his dad, I noticed in the clip when Dodd is a young child, I can also see his mom in him through his facial expressions. He mostly favored his dad, but the facial expressions are clearly his mom. What a beautiful child he was & today is quite a handsome man.
Agree...he is a combination of both parents.
He looks just like his father ad seems to be such a wonderful person. Thank you for this interview!
Dodd Darin sure looks like his dad. This is a good thing for the son.
12/22/2019 I bought "Come September" recently and love watching it over and over. There is something very special happening when Bobby and Sandra are on screen together! Dodd is gorgeous, like his parents.
Sandra and Bobby can be proud that they brought such a fine person into this world. A dead ringer for his Dad, but his personality seems more like his Mom. It was a great book.
What a wonderful son; I loved/still love Bobby.
Fantastic. What a find. I'm a longtime Bobby Darin fan. To see his son is a treasure. thanks.
Wow I just love this story, I totally loved Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee.
So handsome like his father. How I miss Bobby, fell in love the first time I saw him perform. He was one of our greatest entertainers and made every song perfect. Such a lost way too soon.
❤️🙏🏻Thank you for sharing some of your fathers life with us! Great artist ! Bobby and Sandra Dee will always be remembered through his songs and her acting, so sad! 😔.
Loved Darrin and Sandy. You as well, Dodd. I remember the movie. Kevin Spacey did -- an outstanding job, portraying your dad.. I mean: I understand what your mom went through. She had a hard time, for sure. And, you dad as well. With his health. I miss them both. Your parents were the best. Look at what they made. They made you, Dodd. God Bless you!!
What a charming young man , His dad would have been so proud of him ,, broke my heart when Bobby died so young x
I loved Bobby and Sandra was my idol as a young girl. Their son is a magnificent person . God bless this Union and the memories
Wow, he looks like Bobby so much but I see Sandra in those beautiful eyes. She had the most magnificent doe eyes. Gorgeous!! Such a lovely girl. She too was a great actress.
Dodds Darin has the best of both his parents... hes a classy intelligent man , RIP Bobby and Sandra...thanks for the memories. Two talented people..Bobby was one of the Best singers EVER...Sandra was gorgeous and a great actress..both gone too young
He's one handsome young man.
Such a charming young man, looks like his Daddy..and so sweet and compassionate.
Great. Dodd is wonderful narrating his father's life.
I can't believe Bobby Darin died at such a young age at 37 years. What a terrible waste. This guy could have brought us such wonderful music for years. His son sure looks like Bobby.
With his heart condition it was a miracle he lived that long, when he was young they didn't think he'd live to be a teenager.
Sad 😢 the history
Yes he’s the image of his dad!
Bobby had a bad heart. He used to go back stage and take oxygen to finish a show.
Good looking man.looks like both of them.
I always loved Bobby Darin's singing.
"I was a cute kid, what happened?" Became a handsome man!
I was always besotted with his father and I devoured Dodd's book Dream Lovers.
Excellent job, Dodd, and great to see you here!
What a wonderful son. What a wonderful couple.
Dodd Darin, at his best, had his father's looks and charm augmented by his mother's beauty.
He looks so much like his extraordinary father that it is amazing! What a handsome son Sandra Dee has & he was such a living and caring son to his dear mother( adored both of his parents! I wish thus fine man the very, very best! God Bless him & his beautiful family!
Dodd what a class guy we love your father.
Dodd sure had his daddy's beautiful eyes. Bobby would be so proud of him today. A good looking, intelligent soul who is left with wonderful childhood memories. Bobby & Sandra lived a beautiful love story told by Dodd in his book Dream Lovers. I grew up in the 60's & 70's and loved to hear Bobby Darin's songs on my radio. I still love his music today.
