Look at me, I’m Sandra Dee… classic song from the movie Grease.
Just discovered there was a real life Sandra Dee actress & the deliberate inclusion of her name was to “satirize the idealized image of the 1950s "innocent" teenage girl, a trope associated with actresses like Sandra Dee, Doris Day”
This movie from 1961 with Rock Hudson, Gina Lollobrigida, Bobby Darin & Sandra Dee, is what sparked Bobby & Sandra’s wedding. Their on-screen romance mirrored their real-life relationship, which began during the filming.
What a great movie it is too. Thoroughly enjoyed it and some great music from of course the legend himself Bobby Darin.
