- comments - one of my top favourite british actors he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. for his contribution to the performing arts on 17. June 2000 I liked him most in 'Sleuth' (1972), 'California Suite' (1978), 'The Cider House Rules' (1999) and 'The Prestige' (2006) in my humble opinion Caine was brilliant as Victor in 'Blood & Wine' (1997), and I think Nicholson/Caine were the perfect cast for this movie Caine took the name 'Caine' from the movie 'The Caine Mutiny' (1954) his father was Maurice Micklewhite, a former fish market porter...he died in 1957 of liver cancer his mother was Ellen Maria Micklewhite who died in 1989 he has a brother, Stanley (* 1936) has a half-brother...David Burchell (* 1925) who suffered brain damage through epilepsy as a child and was physically disabled...the existence of his half-brother David in a mental hospital was kept secret by his mother Ellen Maria for over 40 years...David died in March 1992 he was married to Patricia Haines (1955 - 1958, divorced), and is now married (08. January 1973) to Shakira Baksh (* 1948) he has one daughter, Dominique (* 1956), with Haines, and one daughter, Natasha (* July 1973), with Baksh |
