i drew my breath in when i started reading, "we're gonna miss this guy..." indeed, that day will be dark. i appreciate his work so much in 'children of men', and have the notion that his character (real life) much resembles that of his character (jasper). dependably one of the good guys!

My grandfather spent my whole life telling the story of the time at the Dallas airport he peed next to John Wayne

Love this and not looking forward to that day. He also gave one of the best James Lipton interviews. Ever.

His lecture on setting your eye line close to camera is iconic!

That's the one. 🙂

Literally a living institution. "Get Carter" tonight after this.

Gen X will be doing a lot of weeping in the next decade or so for our favourite people in tv/film/music/sport.

We were in that bullseye of the explosion of quality entertainment that shaped our lives.

Not yet for Mr. Caine though!

Shush-don’t you dare speak it into existence.

Nothing must ever happen to him.

holmfirthartist.bsky.social•123 days ago

Isn’t he a bit Brexity-Reform?

manmademoon.bsky.social•123 days ago

At his age, Im gonna let his politics slide, assuming they aren't sociopathic.

holmfirthartist.bsky.social•123 days ago

Fair play.

elidelajandro.bsky.social•123 days ago

Him. Tom Baker. Tony Hopkins. James Spader. Christopher Walken.

fedal11.bsky.social•123 days ago

Pacino, DeNiro, Hackman, Redford, Eastwood(despite his chair moment), Duvall, Carol Burnett, Freeman, Willie Nelson, Hopkins, Nicholson, VanDyke, Ford, Hoffman, P Stewart, McKellan, Chris Lloyd, Alda, Mel Brooks, Shatner, Martin Sheen

And so many more legends from a platinum era of entertainment.

fedal11.bsky.social•123 days ago

And I left out so many names.. Julie Andrews, Judi Dench, Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Sophia Loren, Joan Collins, Rita Moreno, etc.

Not to mention so many greats over 75 and still kickin' ass in music.

Such an honour to witness their talents.

Will be sad to say goodbye to them.

Too right. Stars who don't take themselves seriously are a dying breed.

Married for over 50 years to a Muslim woman of color. People are complicated.

What an anecdote!

Michael Caine is an icon in so many ways. ❤️

Got his audiobook. It’s like listening to one of those old fellas you used to get in pubs who had wonderful stories you’d listen to all day.

I found myself sitting in a pub beside him once. It's the voice, he could be reading the ingredients on a packet of pork scratchings and you'd want to know about it. I pretended to keep reading my book, but it was pretty obvious I wasn't turning the pages.
