Aritosthenes Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Happy, Healthy, Gorgeous and Lovely 89nth Birthday to the One and Only English Acting Icon and Legend Sir Michael Caine CBE. Easily one of the most identifiable voices in the Arts. Born March Fourteenth, 1933. Rotherhithe United Kingdom. Impossible for me to pick a Favourite Film from this Man's Staggering Repertoire. Not sure I'd want to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Proulx Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 With William Hurt so very sad departure, it's good to see some positivity celebrating the living. Happy birthday, Mr. Caine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toto Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Yes - Sir Michael Caine is amazing and happy birthday! I agree that it's almost impossible to choose a favorite role but I do love Michael Caine as Eliot in Hannah and Her Sisters. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank Asu Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Feel like I've watched a lot of his films in the past 12 months- The Island, Pulp, Get Carter, etc. Very versatile actor. Never realized he could be a badass before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, his Voice Alone is reason enough to sit down with any of his films. While obviously subjective, one of the Few Performers around who's voice possesses that magical elixir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepiatone Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 And I gotta wonder. Why "Alfred" Ari? Sure. Caine played the character of the butler Alfred in a BATMAN movie, but as his big "breakthrough" role was the eponymous ALFIE I would have thought that would be your title choice.

_Broadway_ Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 To be honest, I actually have not seen too many Michael Caine films, but of the ones I've seen my favorites are Deathtrap (1982) and The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992). The Muppet Christmas Carol is a holiday tradition for my family and Caine plays the role of Scrooge so well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sepiatone Lol Decided upon Alfred as the new grittier interpretation of "Vengance" has just dropped (speaking of Reeves Visionary the Batman take) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
