Is Anybody There? (2009)

Sir Michael Caine gives one of the finest performances of his career as a retired magician who reluctantly enters a family-run old age home in John Crowley’s Is Anybody There? Set in a seaside English town circa 1987,Is Anybody There? charts the unlikely friendship that develops between Caine’s proud, acerbic old performer and the death-obsessed young son (played by Bill Milner) of the home’s overwhelmed owners. Written by Peter Harness, who draws from his own experience growing up in a retirement home, Is Anybody There? brings a rich humor as well as a rigorous honesty to its portrait of different lives colliding under one roof. With a supporting cast that includes Anne-Marie Duff, David Morrissey, Rosemary Harris and Leslie Phillips, Is Anybody There? tells a charming story about growing up and growing old, and the unpredictable adventures that happen along the way.
