Im every bourgeois nightmare – a Cockney with intelligence and a million dollars. – Michael Caine
In the sixties, everyone you knew became famous. My flatmate was Terence Stamp. My barber was Vidal Sassoon. David Hockney did the menu in a restaurant I went to. I didnt know anyone unknown who didnt become famous. – Michael Caine
I dont work very much, and I just sit here waiting for a script that I cant refuse – and Im not talking about money. – Michael Caine
My problem was that I was blond. There were no heroes with blond hair. Robert Taylor and Henry Fonda, they all had dark hair. The only one I found was Van Johnson, who wasnt too cool. He was a nice, homely American boy. So I created my own image. It worked. – Michael Caine
