"How do you stay relaxed?" "You know that you have no enemies, everyone is on your side." Damn, that is such a brilliant piece of advice and way to phrase it. One big reason people get distracted or hold themselves back when acting is that fear of judgment and criticism. Remembering you have no enemies and everyone is with you (well, as long is as your crew isnt full of assholes) really does free and relax you, and gives you the courage to dig deep

It's difficult to do in the moment though, for me being on set is usually 50/50 - half the time you end up meeting some of the worst people imaginable, which does distract you and drain your energy. Even if the director is your friend it doesn't always work.

There are actors who will say that this approach, or technique, or whatever you want to call it, is too mechanical, that it neglects characterization. But you should have already done that at home, so to speak, so that by the time you hit a mark, the character is ready to be unleashed. What he is teaching is the ability to maximize the impact of your character by understanding the practical approach to working small.

I think his point is that all the mechanical bits should be muscle memory by the time you get there. You should have enough memorized that you're not screwing up takes and dont have to think and can just focus on expression. I haven't acted much but I've worked on set a lot and I don't think I can say an actor has ever over prepared but I can say they definitely have under prepared. It's brutal getting through a shoot with a nervous and underprepared actor.

At 13:32 "...do not match. And it's also with dialog for instance [CUT] is to learn it..." Ironically, at the cut back to his front, he now has no cigarette in his hand. It instantly disappears - the very issue he was just talking about lol.

I feel for the young actor, the more you try the more stiff you get, Michael has had years at it. This was so packed with great lessons, Michael is so good, it must have been great to be with him. As an after thought it could be a funny sketch if everyone ended up talking like Michael.

Not an actor or willing to be one (or doing a master shot - ha), but I've finished this film without even 'blinking' due to Michael's marvelous teaching methods. It's good to realize that there are such YT vids that could make your day whilst letting you still take something home like maintaining simple eye contact or putting hard work to make something good that might look perfect to others..

I was in the audience when this was done, and another important thing about Caine, Hopkins, Hackman, Wilder (Gene), and Viola Davis, is that - wonderfully - they don't actually know some of the things which make them good actors. And that's a compliment, it stops them thinking about those 'things'. John

This was awesome! Watching this actually helped me to book a few theatre acting gigs on stage. I watched and watched over again, and learned his technique until I literally couldn’t watch anymore. This was years ago when I watched it. Only reason I stopped pursuing acting was because I was still working a 9 to 5 and could never make it to rehearsals. Rehearsals went on until 1 and 2:00 in the morning and because of my schedule, I had to be back at work by 7:00am on some days. It was tough, and then I eventually fell out of love for it because I couldn’t really dive into like I really wanted to. It was starting to become really frustrating. Now, I’m with an acting skill that I can’t even use. Of course I wouldn’t pass up on an audition if one came up, but it’s not the same for me... at least not how it used to be. Hey, what can I say? Now, here watching again for the 100th time. I really enjoy watching Michael Caine Master Acting Class.

Probably the best KZbin video I've ever seen. I like Michael Caine. I remember the movie Alphie. I was walking up the isle in the theatre toward the lobby noticing the red carpet and soft lights on the wall. And there is a rainy street scene and of course Michael Caine did carry the movie.

I love when actors do a lot when they're not actually speaking lines of dialogue. Getting a message through subtle facial movements and the eyes says so much more than any dialogue can, and my favorite actors are the ones whose face you can look at and tell what they're thinking.

Not an actor myself, but I've always remembered his advice on eye contact since I saw this in 1987. If I see an actor's eyes move like they're watching a tennis match or are blinking, I always think of Michael Caine. And he was absolutely right, it weakens the character. I'm gobsmacked it still goes on to this day from professional actors.

Not even an actor but went down this KZbin rabbit hole. Here he explains that “we don’t know what it is but some people we want to look at”. I think sooooooo many of the people who want to be actors don’t have this and never will. They’d save so much time just doing a screen test within the first week of considering acting and determining if it’s worthwhile or not

Same is true for lots of professions. Wish we could have a way of figuring this out before someone gets an expensive degree or spends 20 years trying something that will never work. I sucked at my profession, but I had an ulterior motive that made it possible for me to do what I really wanted, so it worked out. But someone else in my profession with my lack of talent would have mostly wasted their lives.

I'm not an actor, or director, or anything to do with performing arts, but this is something that stuck with me after I saw it the UK in 1987 and I've used other areas of my life since. This was of course just after he'd finished filming "Behind The Scenes: Jaws the Revenge" but anyway, thank you for uploading it.

Acting is the most tedious difficult thing one can do but when you get it right... it's simple. That's when you think, right, now it's time to get paid. I quit. I mean't to buy this video 30 years ago and it just popped up by accident on youtube. It makes my want to do it again.
