Michael Caine

Sir Michael Caine AKA Maurice Joseph Micklewhite is quoted in this story about the proposed increase in the UK's tax rates. This bit from Caine is a fracking hoot.

Not everything on his CV since has been beyond reproach: his appearances in The Swarm or Jaws: The Revenge spring to mind. But even on the subject of his bad films he is entertaining. "I have never seen the film," he said of one flop. "But by all accounts it was terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific."
