The Caretaker is a 1963 British drama film. It features Alan Bates, Donald Pleasence, and Robert Shaw.
Aston, a quiet, reserved man, lives alone in a top-floor cluttered room of a small abandoned house in a poor London district. He befriends and takes in Mac Davies, an old derelict who has been fired from a menial job in a café. In time Aston offers him a job as caretaker of the house.
