Wow... "You must fight the tears. And when you fight the tears, the audience will cry for you."
This dude is the real deal.
+Winston S. Exactly what happened in the last scene in The dark knight rises, where he thought Bruce Wayne died ! I Cried for him ..
Gets me thinking about the splashdown in apollo 13 and Ed Harris "sort of" crying... that gets me every time. This dude here is a MASTER.
That's like Conan the Barbarian, "Conan does not cry, so I cry for him".
This guy knows so much about his craft, it's scary!
Like the post-abortion scene in "Alfie"...unforgettable acting by Caine.
"..if you fight the tears, the audience will cry for you"
I just want like 5 hours of this talk. I can't believe how interesting this was.
Just CZcams acting workshop and he has an hour long one where he goes through everything
His audiobooks are fantastic.
Not entirely sure why i'm watching acting tips since i have no plans of becoming an actor but i'm enjoying it nontheless
I'm watching because it's Sir Michael Caine talking. This man can be doing a 2-hour documentary about paint drying on the wall and I'd STILL watch him.
literally in exactly the same boat. had a sudden urge to learn. think it'll happen my work lol
everyone is acting all the time...
Same here.
ife lessons!
Could listen to this dude allday. Would love to have a podcast or something like that with him. loved it.
Yes!
Dude!! Same...can hear this guy all day.❤
Got into a fight once with my drama teacher about acting drunk, he said I should act drunk, i then turned and said surely if I’m drunk I’m trying to cover up the fact that I’m drunk? To which the argument kept going back and forth. I’m just happy that Michael Caine also believes the same as i do!
I guess it depends on the context of the scene if youre drunk with your friends who are also drunk in the scene in a private setting then you could act drunk and let it flow out of you, however if youve come home drunk to your parents house underage and your characters parents are strict then i guess you would try to hide the fact you are drunk true?
Sometimes you embrace the drunk sometimes you cover it up - context is needed.
Hey - whatever works!
Sounds like a given circs argument. There probably isn't a defining way to be found until context is established.
I had the same deal at drama school, but I referenced Sam Rockwell, who said, something like "I went to the bar, and drunk soda, and just watched, then I realised ...drunks don't act drunk, they try to act sober" It changed it all for me.
He should direct something. Just freakin anything.
He answered that question. He said it took much time out of his schedule - time he could spend acting.
@@mkprocter882 such a saint
Fascinating. Michael Caine is such a smart guy.
***** One of the best, a true professional.
What a Legend, I hope he has a long healthy life I never tire of him
He's still going at 89. He says he will keep acting as long as he can! His good friend Christopher Plummer never stopped until he died at 91.
Very, very few celebrities that could be said of me that I "worship", but Mr Caine is one.
When Michael explained the part about choosing which eye of the opposing actor to look into, so as to remain open to the camera. I never gave it a lot of thought and put that in the back of my mind, very useful tip.
Some of the subtle looks Caine gives in Get Carter are truly menacing and chilling. One of the most enjoyable actors to watch in the history of cinema.
I believe I'd never get tired of seeing Michael Caine's movies.
goosebumps everywhere...this is brilliant teaching...punching advice that you'll never forget
I really love the mentioning of Male actors fighting the tears, I recall Hugh Jackman mentioning the exact same thing and he even gave an example of the performance. Brilliant concept for such strong acting.
The great value of years of experience.
Saying "My Cocaine" out loud sounds like Michael Caine saying his own name.
+Ethan Martin rofl
Apparently A Woman Went up to Michael Caine at a Reward Ceremony and said to him 'Are you a Drug Dealer' 'No' 'Then Why is Everyone pointing at you, Saying There's My Cocaine' LOL 😂
That is so funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Plot twist: That is literally his name and we've been saying it wrong all these years.
Agree or not ...it's advice from someone whose been there, seen it and done it for > 50 years so we should listen and learn.
Michael Caine, one whom I truly cherish and admire as a great Actor. Those are advice money can't buy.
Michael is absolutely one of my mentors. He doesn't know it LOL, but I adore his work and everything he has shared. Currently reading his book!
I never thought about choosing a certain eye to look at to maintain intimacy with the camera. Very clever.
Is it just me or could you listen to him all day? 😁
Amazing, especially the bit about the drunk acting.
2:57-3:27 -- I like that (and the way he says it). Overall, a very interesting interview. Fascinating, even. Intriguing. A rare treat with one of the last remaining great actors of our time.
3:52 exactly. That's it.
What an excellent lesson in acting as well as human psychology. Thank you so much!
"Bravo" Sir Michael Caine..."Bravo...
I love this man...
He is truly an Actor's Actor Director...
Excellent Teacher...
I just hope I'm half as good as a
Acting Director as he is...
Thank YOU BBC for sharing this video.
His thoughts on crying remind me on Captain Kirk in Star Trek II: Wrath of Kahn when he's standing over Spock's capsule giving the speech. He's trying so hard to not cry and and, like Mr. Caine said, it makes us want to cry for him.
no...its that bill shatner is a crappy actor and couldn't cry
@@minarik01 William Shatner is a classically trained Shakespearean actor.
I could listen to Michael all day long. 🥰
love Michael! He is so witty and amusing! Brilliant also! Very intriguing to listen to.
"Or just play yourself, always play yourself see, no matter what film you're in or what character you are playing, no matter what the background, do exactly the same thing every time, nailed it! You're welcome" MC
One my favorite actors of all time.
Great interview, obviously someone whom has thought about why and what he was doing while acting.
Shows you why he lasted so long in that business, where it must be very competitive.
Someone whom has learnt his craft, and thought alot about how he was doing this stuff. Alot of this stuff would of had to be natural, but its good to know, he picks up stuff from directors too.
Every movie when your someone like caine, must be a learning experience.
It's fascinating to listen to him. Such a great psychologist.
Love this guy, such a legend!
I love this man so much - at one point I came very close to choose acting as a carreer , I attended many drama classes and workshops - my girlfriend at the time was a poet and a playwright she had agreed to write a contemporary short play to help me in my auditions for drama schools and another female friend was a former classmate of Robert Powell - she was givingme useful acting tips but in the end I chickened out because i realised unless I was rather fortunate in reality my destiny was more likely to consist of "resting" between very few actual acting jobs. Had I known about Micheal Caines superb talents as the highly talented acting coach\tutor that he is ontop of being the movie star he is. I think he would helped inspire me to really give it a go.
I appreciate that the interviewer would ask a question and then be quiet. He let Michael Caine do his thing which is what we all want to see. Well done.
Amazing advice Michael. Thank you sir.
Simple yet awesome tips there from one of the greatest actors...kudos....
Epic..
Wow I can listen to Sir Michael Cain all day. Interesting human being, great actor and good teacher. What else this man can do?
I love Michael Caine 💫
One of one of my most favorite actors ty for the content
One the best actors to ever grace the screen!!!!
2 Academies! Genius! Ive always loved Michael. I read his Autobiography and it was one of the best books I've ever read.
such a great teacher. Workshop tapes were brilliant
you Marlon Brando's Son?
Brilliant, brilliant man.
Its amaizing talks. Iwant more talks sir.
Michael Caine, sir; has invented a new dimention of awesomeness in history of mankind in acting category...
Love time served craftsmen they know stuff books are waiting to be written about.
Fabulous actor Michael Caine.
That scene near the end of TDK is heartbreaking. He's so good.
He is the man. This is brilliant!
this is fantastic thanks! as an actor this is great to be reminded of
Excellent! Thank you very much for that Sir Michael Caine :)
What an amazing man!
Absolute best, Sir!
Superb tips from the master.
Wow, thank you very much indeed.
An inspiration, much respect.
Excellent advice!
I played drunk in a drama school play. My teacher taught me the same thing. I won an interschool award for best supporting actor in a play.
Very good advice.
amazing and honest advice
I heard the bit about not being drunk from Denzel a few years ago but the rest of years were delicious. Thank you, Alfred. That is all.
so insightful
I like the fact that his advice is purely practical, and not deep psychological stuff.
Things that I never thought of... Great! Thanks a lot!!
amazing actor! Thanks for the tips sir Caine!
Informative. Thanks very much
Absolutely Brilliant to tips!!! Thank you;-)
GENIUS!!...just Brilliant!!!
A master at work on and off set
above all, a good man
Brilliant actor
WOW I THINK I WILL DIE IN PEACE AFTER MEETING HIM ONCE! I LOVE THIS MAN! PURE GENIUS! WHAT A GEM!
EXCELLENT POINT:
A DRUNK IS A PERSON WHO IS TRYING TO WALK STRAIGHT AND TALK PROPERLY.
I recall Michael appearing on the Graham Norton show sharing the eye story and saying he got that advice from Marlene Dietrich. Caine's performed many wonderful roles. Zulu, Alfie, Sleuth, The Man who would be King, Ipcress File, Cider House Rules, Educating Rita, Secondhand Lions, Batman Trilogy and more. A brilliant career!
Excellent!
What a geezer massive thumbs up sir.
Michael cain
You have always reminded me of my Nan Norma
What a legend Michael Caine is :)
It makes so much sense !
Beautiful. Love Him!;)
Amazing lesson from a genius
Spot on. I've been saying for years that one actor whose performances really get to me in emotional scenes is Christian Bale. He does what I'd call 'man crying' in that he never actually seems to cry, but instead seems to put all of his focus into refusing to cry, instead speaking steadily and keeping his chin up. A great example is towards the end of 3:10 to Yuma when he tells his son to go home. You could argue it's not the healthiest of male traits, but it's certainly a relatable one.
Him and Ollie Reed are my favorites.
Amazing advice. The cigars/sausages thing is so true.
Brilliant!
Brilliant insights
Some amazing advice! :-D
We love you xxx
Me: Never clicked on Michael Caine videos nor watched acting tips
CZcams 2020: Heres the most interesting video you're going to watch this week.
That VERY last thing that Michael said is VERY insightful! and i have seen it to be true! :)
Briliant!!!
Michael Caine is a brilliant teacher
Just great!
Legend.
How very interesting. Thank you.
@BBC oh I didn't realise I was watching your channel. I have been to BBC London when I was 5 years old ( loonggggg time ago haha😂) I believe. My father had an interview on the BBC radio channel.
brilliant
It's incredible . . . how many things in life are capable of being simplified enormously.
And how much nonsense in life stems from their not being.
Great video ❤️👍
Mr. Caine is a genius!
