Ralph Fiennes
When I first filmed things, they were always slightly awkward.

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.

Ralph Fiennes

Ralph Fiennes
It's thrilling to have the opportunity to work in different areas, whether it's on a project that has all the resources behind it like Harry Potter or James Bond and then to go somewhere there's very few resources.
Ralph Fiennes
Unicef wants to encourage a sense of stability for a child.
Ralph Fiennes
You're meant to be playing the distillation of evil, which can be anything.
Ralph Fiennes
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.
Ralph Fiennes
I don't feel particularly comfortable about actors using whatever power they may have to push their beliefs, unless they're extremely well informed.
Ralph Fiennes
I was only interested in my scene, and I had to go through thousands and thousands of other scenes. I got my scene and I read it many, many, many, many, many times. That was my research.
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
I learned a lot about acting - watching not just myself but other actors and learning how to distinguish between two great takes. It's also about one's own taste in performance.
Ralph Fiennes
