More quotes by Michael Caine
I admired Marlon Brando as I grew up. I though he was one of the finest screen actors around.
Michael Caine
You get paid the same for a bad film as you do for a good one.
Michael Caine
Books were my window on the world. Growing up at the Elephant and Castle, which was very rough, my paradise was the library.
Michael Caine
I've been acting a long time, and I can play a Cockney gangster or a womanizer in my sleep or standing on my head. But what I try to do is I try to find characters that are as far away from me as I possibly can and then make them real. A French Nazi is about as far away from me as I can possibly get without actually going to Mars or something.
Michael Caine
I love the start of autumn when the trees in my garden change the colour of their leaves in one last dazzling display.
Michael Caine
For me, the performance was always playing different people. And so when I got older, was no longer the romantic leading movie star, it became more and more interesting for me, the characters I played, you know?
Michael Caine
The three actors I admire the most are all dead. Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy and the French actor, Jean Gabin. They're all very natural, sort of masculine without being overly macho.
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 just love to go home, no matter where I am, the most luxurious hotel suite in the world, I love to go home.
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
If you're blond, as I am, and you have blond lashes, you have to wear mascara, otherwise you're invisible on stage.
Michael Caine
When I look in the mirror, I see someone who's happy with how he looks, because I was never one of the handsome Hollywood people. And I've had success as I've gotten older, because I'm able to play characters. I no longer get the girl, but I get the part.
Michael Caine
I'm not a betting man, and even if I was, I certainly wouldn't bet on this! I would not bet on the Best Actor.
Michael Caine
Ive read an awful lot of books, Ive read alot of awful books
Michael Caine
About Superman and Batman: the former is how America views itself, the latter, darker character is how the rest of the world views America.
Michael Caine
It's funny, people ask me, 'What would you consider the most romantic track on your record Mr Caine?' And I say 'Swollen' by Bent, and they say 'I think he's off his rocker!'
Michael Caine
You can't get blase about something you haven't done yet.
Michael Caine
You start pretending to have fun, you might have a little by accident.
Michael Caine
I come from the slums I come from a hard background I come from a poor family and I was a soldier.
Michael Caine
Theater acting is an operation with a scalpel, movie acting is an operation with a laser
