    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'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.

    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."

    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%.
