LIVE POLL: Burton, Harris, O'Toole and Reed: The Four Hellraisers

@Peter_pbn 

Lol, I meant that they were the antithesis of the gentlemanly refined figure incarnated by Michael Caine, perhaps their biggest rival (and that Richard Harris loathed in particular)

I don't quite understand, not that I necessarily know much about their real-life personalities, but Caine was famously cockney working class.

@Peter_pbn 

Maybe because there's was something too 'civilized' or distinguished about Caine, it's not like he played tormented characters like any of these four or maybe because he became the British actor with the most prominent roles by the early 70s... but it might be all speculation. One thing I learned is that by the end of his career, for some reason, Harris hated Caine's guts...

But there's no need to get Caine mixed in that 'hellraising' business, I changed the intro.

Well, I wonder what they thought about Roger Moore ... (a friend of Caine's, I believe)

@Peter_pbn ... or Sean Connery for that matter.
