“The Cider House Rules,” September 17, 2000, video. Overrated film based on John Irving novel about an orphanage, an orphan, his mentor the doctor/abortionist well played by Michael Caine, and apple picking in the 1940s A good but not a great movie. I much preferred the novel although it also was about 100 pages too long. Even so, it’s important to note that Toby Maguire is, once again, just fantastic to watch, and Caine really is good
