Living right sure helps! Thumbs up!
I started to wear glasses when I was eight, about 1973. I felt bad about it . Then I saw Michael on the " Merv Griffin show ". He mentioned that when he did " The Ipcress files", he was the first leading man since Harold Lloyd to wear glasses. He was so cool and funny. He immediately became my hero and my favorite actor to this day!

It is good to have heroes and you definitely picked a class one.
If there is anyone that can bring prestige to a movie, it’s Michael Caine.

He'll always be monsieur Lawrence Jamieson and Alfie to me.
One of my favorite actors of all time. I love everything he does!!❤️
Like Humphrey Bogart... there will NEVER be another Michael Caine.
My mother was an extra in HURRY SUNDOWN (1967)... so, Michael Caine has been an often-mentioned persona in our household. 💜
Michael Caine is the most British man in the world!
He's adorable. The funniest roll he did, from the ones I've seen was Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. He's so charming.
I saw "A Bridge Too Far" this weekend, MY GOD, he was so handsome!!!!

Vesper Martini Great show!
Excellent actor, Excellent book, Excellent person. I really enjoyed his latest book. His observations are solid. Thanks Michael Caine.
Michael Caine you will be remembered for many roles. But your role as Ebeneezer Scrooge will always be my favorite character that you have played because it was the first time I ever saw you in a movie.
“Second Hand Lion” . . . one of the best movies ever made!!! Thank you Michael and Robert Duvall!!!
I read his book Acting for Film, he's a great teacher.
Some people grow old others grow with style!
Amazing actor. First saw him in the Muppet Christmas Carol. Brilliant as Scrooge.
I always go to Steve Coogan's impression of Caine in The Trip after I hear Michael: "I tend to raise my voice when I get emotional...SHE WAS ONLY SIXTEEN YEARS OLD!!"
He was excellent in "Second hand lions"

One of the best who ever did it give him his roses now "Sir Michael Caine".
I just read his first auto biography earlier this year, it was a long one. I can’t believe he’s written another one. He’s such a character and a bit of a rascal.

Lorraine, thanks for reminding me of that role. He literally broke my heart in that movie. I saw a sweetness in him I’d never seen before. Simply brilliant.
Dude is so so good.
Met the fella in fortnum masons 2019.tall as a house.I had to get a word out of him so I ambled around looking down and asked real unknowing if he knew where the tea towels were.He managed a short NO.and disappeared.Hes a king never did bad work.Dam legend.I bet he knew where the towels were but it's ok I spoke to M.ichael Caine.
Class Gentleman......you hear that voice and you instantly know "This Is Going To Be Good"!
MY FAVORITE ACTOR !!! MAY HE LIVE FOREVER !!! IF POSSIBE ??? BRILLIANT ACTOR WITH BEAUTIFUL WIFE & FAMILY IRISH FAN
I honestly thought he was dead by reading the title before clicking on the video
So nice you covered him. Always liked him.
Simply legend!!!!!!!
Thank you so much.....Ir was nice seeing Michael Cane talk about his life.....

I adore him in everything he does. He had me in stitches in Miss Congeniality!

@@joel8583 Not because of his age but because of the way the title is written, "A legendary life" as in it was over. Also because it was in my recommended first thing in the morning, and the morning before was one about "Super Dave" Bob Einstein's passing. So I thought "Oh no, not again"
Deathtrap was another one of his classic movies. Interesting person.
What a marvelous gentleman. I'm delighted that he's still going strong. As a side note, Jane Pauley is still such a beauty.
Best Alfred ever!
Michel Cain was legendary in Korea. I salute you sir!!
love Michael Caine. He can play the phonebook and it still will be magnificent.
what an amazing actor/man !
Yes I do remember him since his movie Ipcress wearing such visible dark glasses and since then I always kept an eye on his movies ...Zulu was such a masterpiece to my eyes and his part was extremely well acted.. It's a great actor and I guess a tremendous fellow to speak and drink with. I whish him he was able to start afresh now from the age of 18 so to have him around for another 70 years or so :-) Thank you legend.
I love him 😍
It's funny,in watching any film with Michael Caine ....I'm fully aware it's him but also accept the character he's playing.
The man who would be king.
I’ve always like the esoteric flick “A shock to the system”
Remarkable actor and person
He will always be Nigel Powers to me.
The man is just GREAT
Michael said of "Brexit" that he was a reluctant "leaver" of the European Union and said - "I don't know what to vote for. Both are scary. To me, you've now got in Europe a sort of government-by-proxy of everybody, who has now got carried away. Unless there is some extremely significant changes, we should get out."
Michael Caine looks so much like my uncle!
Great segment here. As expected.
In order to decide whether he 'd take a part, he once said "I read the script and if I'm in the first scene, and in the last scene, I take it" (or something close). Such a lovable dude.
He was super in "Zulu".
Love him
He will do any movie
I love this man
People forget he was quite handsome when he was young.
Educating Rita and Man Who Would Be King are his best roles.

Small point but the seemingly American interviewer here said “Batmin” like his interviewee, rather than the more common Batman.
a real class act
Always The Gentleman! And an Actor of Exceptional Excellence! Too Many Roles to Mention One The Man Who Would Be King! N

Love you Mike!! what's it all about?!
Some of my favs. Blame it on Rio, Surrender, Blue Ice. Yes, they were corny, but a guy has to make a living, you know.
Adore Michael Caine! 😁
I love Michael Caine as Alfred, the butler.
We've all been THERE...
Zulu made him a star. Alfie, The Italian Job, and Get Carter made him a bigger star.
Mycocaine.
I would like too see him write a write a work of fiction next
Rage Rage against the dying of the light
He’s adorable
"Found a virgin. It's paradise. Yours, Matthew." Blame it on Rio... hilarious.
I met him early 70's,in his Grosvenor Sq apartment,working for B.Gas we had a job there.He only said "good morning"as he walked down the hallway, but I thought that was nice of him, he could have just walked past and said nothing
Why did I think that he was gone😭😭

Why does no one mentioned Get Carter (1971) and The Black Windmill (1974), one of his best roles in one of those films.
MR. DESTINY was a good movie...
Alfred plays Michael Caine pretty well
The Man Who Would Be King
With the cigars and the brandy.....

He should play deckard Shaw’s dad in Hobbs and Shaw 2
For some people, Michael Caine is not liked, because he was a conservative here in the UK. He left the UK officially in the 1970s when the governments (both Conservative and Labour) put up income tax, rising to a sky high 83% for high earners by 1974. He felt this was too high and left, and got a lot of bad press over his decision. He moved to Beverly Hills and returned in the 1980s when Margaret Thatcher lowered the income tax for higher earners to 60%.
Harry Brown...excellent but sad movie
1:51 is winkworth pennyworth brother? :D
Interstellar.
YOU WERE ONLY SUPPOSED TO BLOW THE BLOODY DOORS OFF!
Coolest Brit to ever exist.
What's it all about ALFIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ?
