Bobby Darin

In 1966, he had his final UK hit single, with a version of Tim Hardin's "If I Were A Carpenter", which peaked at #9. He performed the opening and closing songs on the soundtrack of the 1965 Walt Disney film That Darn Cat! "Things" was sung by Dean Martin in the 1967 TV special Movin' With Nancy, starring Nancy Sinatra, which was released to home video in 2000.

In 1960, Darin appeared twice as himself in NBC's short-lived crime drama Dan Raven, starring Skip Homeier and set on the Sunset Strip of West Hollywood. In the same year, he was the only actor ever to have been signed to five major Hollywood film studios. Additionally, he wrote music for several films which he appeared in.

His first major film, Come September, was a romantic comedy designed to capitalize on his popularity with the teenage and young adult audience, in which he co-starred with 18-year-old actress Sandra Dee. Read Less
