Michael Caine discussed his extensive career, including over 100 films, with Dave Davies on today's Fresh Air. The clip from the Cider House Rules is the most poignant line from the film, and perhaps Caine's entire career. I went away wanting to see the other films mentioned, including Sleuth; I might have dismissed it based on its title alone- the clip gives it more context. His impression of director, John Huston was dead on, too.
The rest of the hour was very good, with one exception. Maureen Corrigan's dialog was as disjointed a piece of journalism as has been included on the program. Everyone's a critic, but really, back to the old drawing board.
