Michael Caine's 1990s: A Noises Off Retrospective (1992)

In my ongoing look at Sir Michael Caine's 1990s filmography I reach his fifth film of the decade, the underrated adaption of Michael Frayn's classic stage farce Noises Off. Caine gives a great comedic performance alongside a cracking cast including Carol Burnett, Christopher Reeve and Denholm Elliott. Trousers fall down, people fall over and a cactus is shoved up a bum. Everything you'd expect from a farce and more. Join me as I look back. Noises Off (1992) Directed by: Peter Bogdanovich (The Last Picture Show, What’s Up, Doc?, Paper Moon, Mask) Other Featured Geezers: Carol Burnett as Dotty Otley/Mrs. Clackett, Denholm Elliott as Selsdon Mowbray/The Burglar, John Ritter as Garry Lejeune/Roger Tramplemain, Christopher Reeve as Frederick Dallas/Philip Brent, Nicollette Sheridan as Brooke Ashton/Vicki, Marilu Henner as Belinda Blair/Flavia Brent, Julie Hagerty as Poppy Taylor, Mark Linn-Baker as Tim Allgood.
