Alfie is a 1966 film starring Michael Caine as the title character, a selfish ladies' man. The title song, played over the end credits and registered under the same name as the film, was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song and later covered by Cher and Dionne Warwick.
The film itself was remade in 2004 with Jude Law and featured a new cover of the song.
