Definitive Michael Caine Retrospective Released on DVD

Janson Media today announced the worldwide DVD release of Michael Caine: Breaking the Mold. The title is the 21st to be released on DVD from the company"s Hollywood Collection, an award-winning archive of 34 movie star biographies and retrospectives produced by Wombat Productions between 1985 and 1999.

Born into poverty in London, when he first decided to become an actor, he was looked upon with amazement: who did Michael Caine think he was? But he persevered, starting in repertory theater, then TV, and finally succeeding in becoming one of Hollywood's most versatile stars. Michael Caine remains one of only two actors to be nominated for an Academy Award in every decade since the 1960's. Today, despite those successes, he retains a keen memory of his origins. He has refused to abandon the Cockney accent that reflects his roots, or the authentic spirit that bends a knee to no one.

Narrated with gentle self-deprecating humor and honesty by the star himself, Breaking the Mold features clips from such films as Educating Rita, The Man Who Would Be King, Alfie, California Suite, Hannah And Her Sisters (for which Caine won his first Academy Award), Mona Lisa, Sleuth, Deathtrap, Zulu, and The Ipcress File.

Also included are the recollections of friends, co-workers and family members such as actors Julie Walters, Bob Hoskins, Dyan Cannon, Angie Dickinson, Ben Kingsley, Roger Moore, directors Lewis Gilbert and Sidney J. Furie, and Michael Caine"s wife, Shakira.
