What's It All About? | Michael Caine

Loved listening to Sir Michael Caine (now 90!) share stories about his early career, slew of movies (160!) and 50-year marriage to Shakira. It was love at first sight when he saw her in a 1970s Maxwell House TV commercial! Can you believe Michael “purposely” skipped several chapters on this audio version so the listener would buy the book and get the whole story? 😳 That‘s a first for me! Maybe an 80s marketing gimmick?

UwannaPublishme @Leftcoastzen Yes, I really do have a cassette player in my car. 😁 And I love finding oldies like this. 12mo
TheAromaofBooks Listening to him talk for hours on end would be no hardship! I had no idea he was married for so long - that's quite the feat in film industry. We watch Muppet Christmas Carol every year, and he really makes that movie. 12mo

UwannaPublishme @TheAromaofBooks He does have an accent that will make you swoon! 💕 And I just put the Muppet Movie on my watch list. Haven‘t seen it in ages. 12mo
TheAromaofBooks I read an interview once where he said that when he agreed to do the Muppet movie he said the only way to do it was if he took it 100% seriously. His ability to do the straight, serious act whilst surrounded by muppets is what makes the whole movie work, and makes Scrooge's character arc so believable. We watch that one every year! 😁 12mo
UwannaPublishme @TheAromaofBooks I‘ve always loved all of the Muppets movies, since they sneak in many jokes for us big kids. 😉 I may need Christmas to come sooner. I really want to see it now! 😄 12mo
PurpleyPumpkin Another to add to my tbr!📚👍🏽 Interesting that he skipped some chapters. I‘d love to hear his story told in his voice, so maybe a book/audio read is in order. Having said that, I‘m sure the abridged version was highly entertaining! 12mo
UwannaPublishme @PurpleyPumpkin He is quite a character and a great storyteller too. And having him read to you via audio is the only way to go. 😊👍🏻 12mo
