Описание: Michael Caine is the biggest movie star Britain has ever produced - indeed, his life story is the story of Britain in the twentieth century. Born into South London
poverty during the depression-hit 1930s, Caine as a child suffered the depredations of war and then wasted his youthful energies fighting in Korea during the fifties. Subsequently he
began his long, slow climb up the greasy pole of the acting trade (a walk-on in "Pinter" here, a bit-part with Stanley Baker there.) But following the Suez crisis, as Britain's old order
began to crumble, Caine's gritty working class credentials came into their own through a string of mould-breaking roles: the Old Etonian who no longer believes in his power to command
in "Zulu"; Harry Palmer, the cashiered NCO who lives for his insubordinate detestation of the upper classes in "The Ipcress File"; Alfie, the last hysterical macho in a culture about to be
wrong-footed by feminism; and Charlie Croker, the vicious Little Englander out to do de Gaulle's Europe down in "The Italian Job".
But Caine is far more than just a sixties icon.
Throughout his four decades as an international star he has continued to echo his country's mood-swings: in the seventies with the Tyneside-set thriller "Get Carter", a brutal riposte to
the summer-of-love years; and in the eighties with the Thatcherite get-rich-quick squalor of "Mona Lisa". In the nineties, this son of a Billingsgate fish porter would become Sir Michael
Caine - the living embodiment of John Major's much-vaunted 'classless society'.
Combining anecdote with history, critical analysis with wit, Christopher Bray's book - the first
serious critical biography of Michael Caine - is a class act in itself.

Описание: In this absorbing series, veteran broadcaster Sir David Frost talks to a selection of his favourite film stars. This career-defining interview sees him talking to Michael Caine, who starred in Alfie, The Ipcress File, The Italian Job and most recently as Alfred in Christopher Nolan's Batman films. Caine speaks candidly about his life both on and off screen.
He recalls his first experiences with acting, recounting how he signed up for drama classes aged 14 - having spotted that they were full of pretty girls. Remembering his Hollywood years, he recalls the the firm friendships he forged with the likes of John Wayne, Elizabeth Taylor and Jack Nicholson, and explains why he missed picking up his Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for Hannah and her Sisters. He talks of his many acting roles as the romantic lead, and of his most enduring - and most important - romantic role: as husband to model and actress Shakira.
