What are the best Michael Caine films? Have recently seen The Italian Job, Alfie and the awesomely ridiculous killer bee movie.
Love Dressed to Kill and Educating Rita.
What would you suggest?
In a Michael Caine Mood

Alfie. There was a time it seemed like he was in every movie. Wonderful actor.

He's one of the most annoying actors of all time-- the male version of Katharine Hepburn.

I love him. Anything. Watch anything he's in. Even in his dotage he is brilliant. I like the small British films where is is an elderly schemer.

His second Oscar is bullshit. He hustled hard for that one.

I even liked Caine in the last Austin Powers movie.
Who ever thought that one day, Caine and Beyoncé would share a movie screen together?

He was magnificent in “Educating Rita”.

Love watching Liz and Mikey go at it in "X, Y, and Zee."

Caine's not great in it, but Zulu is an excellent film.
The Ipcress File is a good B&W British spy thriller from the 1960s. Amazing now to see how post-Blitz London still looked in the early 60s.

DIRT TAY ROH TEN SCOUNDRELS

I think Children of Men is a masterpiece, I think I've seen it 5 or 6 times. Caine is great but it's a minor role that Sean Connery or Ian McKellen or any ageing British actor could've done.
I highly recommend Harry Brown.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a lighthearted watch and an absolute delight. I rewatch it at least once a year.

Op here. I love his highly varied mix of work, spanning decades. Last night I got stoned and made a poor choice, which was Beyond the Poseidon Adventure. Caine gives and gives but can’t save this mess.
I will have to review this thread for better ideas.

Noises Off.
He’s hysterical as the frustrated director.
