I remember a few years ago a really late show on bbc2 i believe it was when Michael Caine was in front of a group of drama students and basicaly giving them tips. Even stuff down to when to blink, when not to etc. It was a fascinating insight into his world and techniques. Things like the difference between acting on film and on stage. In a film he would put a mark on a floor to where he wanted to be at a certain time of dialogue so he could turn on the spot or be closer to his fellow actor(s). Caine can often come across as always being very much the same in many of his films, cockney accent etc, in fact i can't think of a film where he has an accent apart from cockney (add film here) but when you actually study him he's actually a very diverse actor or at least i think he is. Alfie is just an amazing piece of acting and still to this day one of my favourite all time films. That and Billy liar (I know Caines not in it but i don't know of another part of this forum where i may be able to meantion that)
yeah that'd be this: ,
Ah, thank you. Watching it now, brillinat !
