Lewis Gilbert. "Me life's me
own - to do what I like
with," observes Cockney
loverboy Michael Caine as he
bounces from one gorgeous bird to
the next, including Vivien
Merchant, Jane Asher and Shirley
Anne Field, always trying to stay
one step ahead of true feeling or
commitment. A brilliant comic
portrait of the high cost of
loving, 1960's style, based on
Bill Naughton's play. Features a
superb score by jazz giant Sonny
Rollins. Film also features
Shelley Winters.
