Oscar-winner Michael Caine is a true international movie star. This photographic celebration of his work documents the performances—good and bad—that made his name and helped define an era. Find out the story behind each of the more than 80 films he made, and the reactions, influences, and in some cases the backlash to his performances. Every one is included, from the early successes—Zulu, The Italian Job, Alfie, and Get Carter—to his mature roles in Hannah and Her Sisters, The Cider House Rules, and The Quiet American. Quotes from the man himself, and from those who worked with him, as well as never-before-seen interviews, provide further fascinating insights.
