Beyond the Sea plot
"In the era of cool, Bobby Darin was the soundtrack."
For Bobby Darin, life was one big gig. It was what kept him alive, no matter how bad he felt off stage. From the age of seven, little Walden Robert Cassotto was gearing up for a life on the podium - although he realized his chances of success were slim. Because Bobby would never live past the age of 15 because of a rare heart defect. But with the help of his loving family and his mother, who introduces him to music, little Bobby grows into Bobby Darin, one of the greatest entertainers in American music history.
