Our favorite cartoonist Pete Emslie of The Cartoon Cave honors the immortal crooner Bobby Darin on his birthday. Darin, who died in 1973 at age 36, would have been 73 years old today. While everyone is aware of his status as a chart-topping singer, Darin also enjoyed a brief film career in movies such as
Too Late Blues, Come September, Pressure Point, Hell is For Heroes and
Captain Newman, M.D. for which he received a supporting actor Oscar nomination. Darin is Kevin Spacey's favorite singer, and the Oscar winner portrayed him in the biopic
Beyond the Sea. Visit Pete Emslie's web site by
