Michael Caine on his working class roots. Many today would probably be surprised to see him so passionate, but at the height of his popularity he really did break class barriers. Before films like Zulu and The Ipcress File, you simply didn’t see Cockneys in those roles.

I may watch the Italian Job again to remember how a proper heist movie is done. Michael Caine back when he was a puckish rapscallion instead of the world's charming uncle.

Fun fact: Claude Rains (The Invisible Man, Lawrence of Arabia, and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington) had a cockney accent, and he worked hard to change it to a more standard British accent. You didn’t see too many leading men with that accent back then.

I still have to see Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. I know it’s a classic and probably a timely film around election season.

Reminds me of that brilliant bit in Kingsman where his ultra-snob aristocrat character's RP accent slips into cockney as he dies.

Cary Grant was a working class kid from Bristol, but he had a transatlantic accent so he could play posh very easily.

@DaelinZeppi1 Don’t they still exist, just that they’ve been driven out of London?
