Michael Caine, the 90-year-old actor, said in his time, people did the love scene and got on with it

While speaking about the changes in film production and the need for intimacy coordinators, Michael Caine said that in his day, people just did the love scene and got on with it without anyone interfering. He further said that it has all been changed now.

The 90-year-old actor further said:

"It’s dull. Not being able to speak your mind and not being able to call anyone darling. It’s hard. I like to learn from friends who are younger than me."

Caine's interview has come at a time when his upcoming drama The Great Escaper is about to release. This British-French drama is based on the life of World War II veteran Bernard Jordan.

While speaking about the film, he said:

"I was so happy to do it. I just loved the character of Bernie. I thought he was incredible, and it’s so beautifully written. With Covid and all that, I hadn’t done a picture for three years, and I thought I was finished. And I suddenly did it — and had such a wonderful time."

Michael also said that this movie is going to be his final film. He concluded by saying:

"I am bloody 90 now, and I can’t walk properly and all that. I sort of am retired now."
