Is Anyone There?

Michael Caine

Formula British piece which skated between mostly mean-spirited humor, pathos, lovable old codger convention, and marital strife. The humor here was at the expense of the elderly and it wasn't funny. Everything else seemed like it came out of scriptwriting 101.

Caine had several good scenes...he always manages to be believable in his roles...but this one smelled more like product to me than anything else.
