CAINE REFUSES TO WATCH HIS MOVIES

Veteran actor SIR MICHAEL CAINE refuses to watch any of his old movies because he would hate to see himself "crumbling" with age.
The Get Carter star has appeared in more than 100 films after rising to fame in the 1960s with lead roles in pictures including 1964's Zulu.
But the Oscar-winner, currently starring as a vigilante in revenge movie Harry Brown, hopes he'll never be honoured with a lifetime achievement award, because he doesn't want scores of people to see how he has aged.
He says, "I never look at (my movies). I never look at them, because you know what happens is sometimes they give you a lifetime achievement award, you know, and you sit there and they play all your films. And what it is, you're sitting there watching and you're actually watching you start on Zulu and wind up as Harry Brown, you watch this guy sort of crumble and turn into this old man.
"But they're very kind now, they change it. They do bits from here, there and everywhere, you know. So you don't get that sort of crumbling effect."
