To destroy Michael Caines back Catalogue of movies..?
From the sublime
To the downright embarrassing
I hope they just don't attempt to remake his classic Harry Palmer series. Ipcress file has to be one of his best movies.

| Hollywood is afraid to be creative anymore and use original ideas. That's why everyone needs to support indie films and ignore the remakes. |

True. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is my favorite Caine movie and it's on Broadway, now. It's only a matter of time before it's on the big screen, again. I hope not. He was so good in that movie. I love that part when Rupret the monkey boy's wrestling around with Lawrence and then Rupret's screaming Oklahoma Oklahoma Oklahoma as he's banging on his pots and pans. A real funny scene My state is mentioned in such a flattering manner  |

| Always wanted to see Micheal Caines version of Get Carter. Haven't been able to find it. Gonna have to go to Amazon and buy it I guess. |

Far superior to the Sly Stallone version, ( in which Caine had a cameo).Watch for the scene where mr Caine walks out into the street naked carrying a shotgun to ward off a couple of" heavies"
Jack Carter: [naked, pointing a shotgun] Out!
Con McCarty: Come on Jack, put it away. You know you're not going to use it.
Peter: The gun he means!
