Use the difficulties - if you can't avoid them
Michael Caine
Image
I have a knack of making villainous people a little bit sympathetic, a bit of fun on screen.
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.

It’s a lesson in life—don’t look back, you’ll trip over.
Michael Caine
Image
I have been rich and I have been poor. I know which one I prefer.
Michael Caine
Image
I never look back at all. All of my sentiment and emotion goes into my family. I'm an extremely family oriented person and I have a very, very happy family life. That doesn't just include blood relations. I have friends who are close to me.

You have to remember, I never became successful or wealthy till I was 30.

You can see all sorts of things in film acting if you know where to look and what to look for. One thing I often notice is that the actor is looking for his mark, the place where he has to stand to be in the right place in the shot.

I've always played very human sort of characters.
Michael Caine
Image
I've been on movies where I literally couldn't hear what the other actor was saying. It's very awkward.
Michael Caine
Image
I'm not tough anymore, I'm 82.
Michael Caine
Image
I don't like getting up early in the morning and learning all that stuff. I work with offers that I can't refuse.
Michael Caine
Image
It's much harder to act in a bad film than in a good one. A terrible script makes for very difficult acting. You can win an Academy Award for some of the easiest acting in your career, made possible by a brilliant script.
Michael Caine
Image
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.

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!'

Image
If you're a movie actor, you're on your own - you cannot control the stage. The director controls it.
Michael Caine
Image
I'm hoping there's an afterlife. As you get older, you hope even more fervently.
Michael Caine
Image
Obsession is a young man's game, and my only excuse is that I never grew old.

When you reach the top, that's when the climb begins.
