I feel there's so much still to learn about acting. But there is some magic in the capturing of performance and in the process of editing a performance. The psychology of human beings and what's coming through the face... that fascinates me.

Image
I never studied anything about film technique in school. Eventually, I realized that cinema and theater are not so different: from the gut to the heart to the head of a character is the same journey for both.

I don't feel I'm playing villains all the time.
Ralph Fiennes

So much of movie acting is in the lighting. And in loving your characters. I try to know them, and with that intimacy comes love. And now, I love Voldemort.
Ralph Fiennes
Image
I admire the world of the books and the characters that she's created, but I'm not an addict of Harry Potter. I don't feel possessive about it.
Ralph Fiennes
Image
I don't feel particularly comfortable about actors using whatever power they may have to push their beliefs, unless they're extremely well informed.

Image
Going to the movies was a big event in my youth. My father would be the initiator - he'd have me put on a jacket to see a film.

In the best material, you always should be able to somehow make a case for a story to be transposed to any other time.
