Alfie por Lewis Gilbert

Caine is great as Alfie, who frequently speaks directly to the audience in this adaption of a play by the original playwright, Bill Naughton. Alfie is interested in just about any woman, from the gorgeous Jane Asher to Shelley Winters (who hadn't quite evolved into the Poseidon Adventure Shelley Winters, but was well on her way.) Alfie manages to be likable and unlikeable at the same time, as his treatment of a fellow sanatorium patient and his wife show. The film, successfully, moves from outright comedy to some deeply serious moments featuring Alfie's relationships with Foster and Merchant. Highly recommended.… (mais)
2022 movie #61. 1966. Alfie (Caine) is a right bastard, keeping a string of women who he barely cares about. When one of his birds gets pregnant and gets an abortion, the movie takes a serious turn. The movie that made Caine a star.
