5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!, 15 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Acting in Film (The Applause acting series) (Hardcover)
Acting In Film is humorous, candid and informative not only to the aspiring actor, but to the film viewer as well.

Some important messages addressed are: Preparation, spontaneity, and behavior on and off the set.

Actin in Film gives valuable tools to any actor including those interested in Community Theater. A must have book for all movie buffs!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic little book, 12 Nov 2007
By Karel Bata (London (a posh bit)) - See all my reviews
Ever wondered what Michael Caine gets up to when he's locked in his trailer for hours before going on set...?

A charming, witty, and surprisingly informative book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great insights by a master, 18 Dec 2006
Superb. A practical and honest insight in to the craft (rather than art) of film acting. Caine dispenses his wisdom liberally and one quickly begins to appreciate that professionalism and hard work are the key to any career. Caine has those qualities in spades - it is in fact his dedication to them that has also made him a great artist.
