"I had to be an actor," Michael Caine once said. "[?] And of course, you have to remember with me, the alternative was a factory."
A working-class actor who broke through to stardom, Caine's screen-time involves standout performances across multiple genres. To this day, he is synonymous with a certain kind of urbane cool. No camera has captured this quality over the decades better than that of his collaborator and long-time friend, Terry O'Neill.
