Michael Caine Struggling To Play A Character His Own Age

 
March 9, 2009 
 

Sir Michael Caine is struggling to play a character his own age. The 75-year-old actor plays a retired magician forced to go into a nursing home in "Is Anybody There?" and is finding it hard to relate to the role.

He said: "I don't think of me as an old man so this has been a real stretch."

"I play a guy, 75, 76, and I tell myself, 'He is not you. He is him. He's very sick. He is getting dementia. And he has a much harder life than you have.'"

"I always like to stretch myself and do films that interest me. I thought he was a wonderful old man. I really loved him."

The "Alfie" star also says he enjoys working with people considerably younger than him, insisting he had no problem relating to his 10-year-old co-star Bill Milner in the new movie.

He added: "I'm used to working with children. I worked with 120 of them in The 'Cider House Rules.' They're good company."
