Sir Michael Caine: The Biography

De: William Hall

Narrado por: Andrew Wincott

Born Maurice Micklewhite, son of a Billingsgate fish porter and a charlady, Michael Caine's life has been an extraordinary rollercoaster: from washing dishes and fighting on National Service, to winning two Oscars and being knighted by the Queen.

With more than 80 films to his name, he has starred in some of the classics of modern cinema: as an action anti-hero in Get Carter, a Cockney lothario in Alfie, and a disillusioned alcoholic academic in Educating Rita.

He is an enduring model of British cool. This authorised biography charts the amazing highs and lows in his turbulent ride to fame, fortune, and respect.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A gripping biography…wonderful.” ( Daily Mail)

Great Book!

What an interesting life. I had to binge watch every Michael Caine movie made after reading it. He is such a success story. Great story and you will feel better about the world and people in it when you are done reading it. Humanity at it's finest. Narration was fabulous.

Great performance

Interesting look at a wonderful actor. Especially enjoyed the ability of Andrew Wincott to mimic Sir Michael Caine.

The reader is fabulous

This book is so easy to get into as the reader has the knack of using several different voices for different characters thereby making it so easy to follow. His voice is startling as Michael CAINE. Wow.
