I was grateful to have two weeks to shoot this one scene in Harry Potter. It's a big, big scene, but they have to deliver. And they have high expectations.
Ralph Fiennes
There are those moments when you shake someone's hand, have a conversation with someone, and suddenly your all bound together because you share your humanity in one simple moment.
Ralph Fiennes
We are now living in a jungle where the strong eats the weak,we are not better than the Arabs to despise them.
Ralph Fiennes
It's not great if someone gives you sort of bland praise without giving you clear direction and say, This is good, let's try it like this. I have worked with someone who seemed quite inarticulate and just would say, That's good, that's good. That's very frustrating because - it's nice to know something is good but you know it can always ch
Ralph Fiennes
It [the scene] can be something given to you and you go, Ah this is a good idea, I can work with this. Sometimes it cuts right across your instinct and that's when I might resist. Even if the director might be insistent, I think it's very important to say, Look, I'm not feeling this. I'll try to make it work but I got to let you know.
Ralph Fiennes
Unicef's education initiative does not seek to impose, but to initiate and integrate. It does, however, aim to address the huge bias towards education for boys at the expense of girls in so many cultures.
Ralph Fiennes
We're in a world of truncated sentences, soundbites and Twitter... [Language] is being eroded -- it's changing. Our expressiveness and our ease with some words is being diluted so that the sentence with more than one clause is a problem for us, and the word of more than two syllables is a problem for us.
Ralph Fiennes
Little moments can have a feeling and a texture that is very real.
Ralph Fiennes
I loved doing Harry Potter. I had a great time on that. And I think it's good to have a mix. I think you're learning all the time.
Ralph Fiennes
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
The actor shouldn't edit themselves or be anxious. And the actors that I admire are always the ones who are inventive and their imaginative life in free-willing. It's a director's job to go, No here, don't do that, go there.
Ralph Fiennes
I guess I'd love to be surprised by something I had never thought of.
Ralph Fiennes
In the best material, you always should be able to somehow make a case for a story to be transposed to any other time.
Ralph Fiennes
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.
Ralph Fiennes
You dread that there will be real problems during filming.
Ralph Fiennes
Success.. is all about being able to extend love to people... not in a big, capital letter sense but in the everyday. Little by little, task by task, gesture by gesture, word by word.
Ralph Fiennes
I have grown up loving Shakespeare.
Ralph Fiennes
I veer away from trying to understand why I act. I just know I need to do it.
Ralph Fiennes
I'm more relaxed about how the editing process will create a performance and that, in a way, gives me a sense of freedom.
Ralph Fiennes
I'm interested in the spirits of people. In the theatre, there's the acting part of acting - and I'm not saying that can't be great - and there's the essence. To explore that essence, you need a key, a look, a gesture, an insight that unlocks the person's soul.
Ralph Fiennes
