About this listen

Mr. Caine gives you a once-in-a-lifetime chance to rob him blind! The man who's hypnotized the camera lenses for a quarter of a century reveals the most closely guarded secrets on script preparation, working with the director, forming a character, voice, sound, and movement. Pearl by pearl he lays out the Caine wisdom on everything from set politics to set decorum, the film bureaucracy and more!

Remarkable material.... A treasure.... I'm not going to be looking at performances quite the same way.... Fascinating! (Gene Siskel)

This is a much-loved book for me, read and re-read many times. I’m not an actor, but a musician. Amazing how much of Caine’s wisdom and experience can be applied to other disciplines. But the narration here is strangely hampered by the sense that the reader doesn’t seem to know whether he’s doing an impersonation. Either way, it’s jarring. What wouldn’t you give to have the man himself reading it?
