“In a close-up, choose just one eye of the actor you’re playing opposite, don’t skip between the eyes or you will just look shifty”
Michael Caine is not just a fantastic actor, but an amazing raconteur. This autobiography is one of many that he has penned and begins at the beginning and goes through to prior to the commencement of filming of The Dark Knight Rises.
Are you keen for some name dropping and tantalising behind the scenes stories? Then this my friend is for you! It was recommended to me by my brother who thoroughly enjoyed the audiobook version with Caine’s voice narrating. Frank Sinatra, Sean Connery, Sydney Poitier, the pages are a literal who’s who of Hollywood and the entertainment industry in an entertaining and enlightening memoir. There is the sense that you’d like to corner Caine and get just a little bit more out of each story, the details that legal probably wouldn’t clear. Nonetheless, this is a delight.
5 out of 5, I just love Michael Caine.
