Review of Beyond the Sea (2004) by Mommy S — 02 May 2016
What a gem of a film! I chanced upon it on Amazon Prime, and since both my mom and daughter were big Bobby Darin fans, I watched. I felt like I was watching an old time musical, but also a modern story.
It was just a touch surreal, and I think told Darin's story in a very true way. Sometimes a little fantasy coveys truth better tan a list of facts, and this film does that. I wish there were more folks like this.
If you like love stories, if you like the American songbook, if you like old style musicals...watch this one. I do not understand the bad critical reviews this is a gem.
