Easy Money For Caine.
19 March 2018 | by grey-crow – See all my reviews

Michael Caine said of "Jaws: The Revenge": "I have never seen it, but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific."

I have a feeling that "Dear Dictator" just paid for a conservatory.
