More quotes by Michael Caine
The best research for playing a drunk is being a British actor for 20 years.
Michael Caine
I've been on movies where I literally couldn't hear what the other actor was saying. It's very awkward.
Michael Caine
I prefer to remake flops. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels was a remake of a flop, and The Quiet American is a remake of a flop.
Michael Caine
It's vital to have your own space so you aren't constantly in each other's pockets.
Michael Caine
I don't do it often, but I do cry. I also laugh a lot people tell me I'm funny and I do like to laugh.
Michael Caine
If you held a pistol at my head, I couldn't tell you who they're going to vote for Best Actor.
Michael Caine
I didn't know what I knew. I wasn't aware of what I knew.
Michael Caine
They use those monitors now, and sometimes you'll be doing a shot and then suddenly you see yourself on one of those monitors, and I always say turn the monitor round, I don't want to see myself on the monitor. I never see myself 'til the movie's finished.
Michael Caine
I don't worry about the last shot or the next shot. I concentrate. Every shot gets a clean slate. And when a shot is over, I wipe it out absolutely. Tell a joke or something. If you worry about how you looked, how well you did, you'll go insane.
Michael Caine
You start pretending to have fun, you might have a little by accident.
Michael Caine
I have enough money not to do pictures ever. I'm seventy years old. I don't want to get up at 6:30 in the morning and learn ten pages of dialogue to do with a bunch of creeps I don't like. It's gotta be fun for me.
Michael Caine
To be a movie star, you have to carry a movie. And to carry a movie where you play the title role is the supreme example.
Michael Caine
My closest friends are Roger Moore, who is an actor, Sean Connery, who is an actor, Terry O'Neill, who is a photographer, Johnny Gold, who was the boss of Tramp, and Leslie Bricusse, who is a composer.
Michael Caine
I'm every bourgeois nightmare - a Cockney with intelligence and a million dollars.
Michael Caine
It’s a lesson in life—don’t look back, you’ll trip over.
Michael Caine
If you're a gardener you don't need a gym. [...] You're always carrying large sacks of manure all over.
Michael Caine
You've got to be flexible. Directors do a massive amount of planning and homework, and if after all that your director decides to throw it all out of the window and shoot spontaneously, then you must follow his lead.
Michael Caine
Funny things happen to you in movies for silly reasons.
Michael Caine
If you put someone on screen long enough, they become the hero.
Michael Caine
We can only use British actors because everybody's got to talk exactly the same.
Michael Caine
