Editor's note: In the film and television circle, some actors come from literary and artistic families, their starting point is very high but they are always shrouded by the star aura, although they inherit the excellent genes of handsome appearance and good temperament, but they do not form their own performance style, and the British actor Joseph Fiennes is one of them. Members of the Fiennes family have all been associated with film, including his brother, the two-time Oscar-nominated Ralph Fiennes, his sister Martha Fiennes, who is the film director, and his younger sister Sophie Fiennes, who is also an actress. Over the years, Joseph Fiennes has almost disappeared from the film and television industry, with almost no new works coming out, rarely appearing, where did he go?
When it comes to british actor Joseph Fiennes, many people invariably compare him with his brother Ralph Fiennes. The same Hollywood actor, the fame and achievements of the two are very different. Compared with the little famous Joseph Fiennes, the older brother Ralph Fiennes can be said to be famous in Hollywood.
Ralph Fiennes was well known for starring in the film Schindler's List and was nominated for best supporting actor at the Academy Awards for the first time. At the same time, he succeeded Judy Dench as Mr. M in the 007 series of movies "007: Breaking the Sky", and he continued to play the role of Mr. M in the film "007: No Time to Die" that will be released until April next year. Ralph Fiennes has been nominated for both oscars and Golden Globes twice and is very popular in the circle.
In fact, Joseph Fiennes is not as bad as he thinks compared to his brother.
On July 21, 2001, a movie about the sniper theme of the World War II period, "Soldiers In the City", was released in the mainland, and the audience feasted their eyes on the wonderful sniper duel between the Soviet sharpshooter Vasily and the German Major Connie.
Adapted from the 1973 novel of the same name by writer William Craig, the film has a real historical character archetype, a grand and shocking war scene, a clever sniper tactical arrangement that is a classic, and a hundred steps through the Yang gun technique makes military enthusiasts addicted, which is a classic movie that people will never forget.
The success of "Soldiers In the City" lies not only in the eye-catching sniper movie theme, but also in the wonderful performance of the actors. Vasily, played by Jude Lowe, and Major Connie, played by Ed Harris, vividly show the spirit of the two legendary sniper masters.
In this movie, Danilov, an officer in the Soviet Military's Propaganda Department played by Joseph Fiennes, is also quite impressive. A round-rimmed glasses paired with his bookish temperament, the civilian official's dancing ink and small family temperament also make the audience love and hate. Under the star aura of Jude Lowe and Ed Harris, Joseph Fiennes is much inferior.
Even so, joseph Fiennes' supporting role is equally outstanding. In addition to the climactic part of the sniper duel in the film, the most extensive is the open struggle between Joseph Fiennes and Jude Lowe for the woman he loves, and finally repents, choosing to sacrifice himself in order to expose the position of the opponent, which is impressive.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > is a brother with Ralph Fiennes, and his acting skills are not first-class, but they also have outstanding performances</h1>
As a member of the Fiennes family, Joseph Fiennes embarked on the same acting path as his older brother Ralph Fiennes. The brothers have certain similarities in appearance and temperament, but also have their own characteristics. Brother Ralph has been working hard in Hollywood for many years and has accumulated a lot of popularity, and sometimes the audience is silly about the brothers in a certain role.
Although they are brothers, they also roam the performance stage, and when Joseph Fiennes's play is not as broad as his brother's, the roles they play are also different. Compared with Ralph Fiennes's restrained style, Joseph Fiennes is explosive and the character personality is relatively rich.
In terms of acting skills, although not as superb as his brother, Joseph Fiennes still has his own characteristics. In the more professional words of insiders, the acting skills are not first-class, but there are occasional brilliant performances, and Count Robert Dudley in "Elizabeth" and Shakespeare in "Shakespeare's Love History" have become the highlight moments of their acting careers.
Only in recent years, Joseph Fiennes seems to have disappeared from the sight, and no new film production has been produced, and it has almost disappeared. In addition to seeing him in those old films, it is difficult to see him in mainstream commercial films, even in cameo supporting roles.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > deep, charismatic eyes, an actor who wanders between ruggedness and gentleness</h1>
Born in a family of actors, his appearance is naturally not much worse. Joseph Fiennes's first impression is of his slender cheeks and thick, long-haired eyebrows, especially against the backdrop of deep eyes, exuding a melancholy temperament and a little evil spirit.
In terms of appearance and temperament, many people think that Joseph Fiennes has Italian blood, because he gives people a feeling very similar to Italians, but it is not. The flaming handsomeness and bearded appearance are indeed attractive enough.
As a typical British actor, Joseph Fiennes's handsome and elegant British style is still there, and even has a dark and evil quality in this style. He can play a good guy or a bad guy, because he studied music and theater in the early days, so the rigorous class training made him look at acting with ease.
In addition to having a professional acting background, the classical and sexy actor temperament is also a major feature of Joseph Fiennes. This is quite controversial, and many people in the comparison of him with his brother Ralph Fiennes always feel that he lacks temperament and characteristics.
Even if everyone was no longer impressed with him, Joseph Fiennes's deep and charming eyes were indeed more attractive than his brother's. In terms of performance style, he can also switch between publicity and introspection.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > famous for starring in Shakespeare's Love Story, and it is a bit regrettable that there is no follow-up</h1> work
In 1998, Joseph Fiennes starred in the pinnacle of his acting career, Shakespeare, which received 13 nominations at the Academy Awards the following year. In this film, Joseph Fiennes played Shakespeare alive for his outstanding performance, becoming a classic role that fans talk about.
Sometimes passionate and sometimes deeply obsessed, Joseph Fiennes takes a new level of romantic love history of Shakespeare. It is precisely because of his stunning performance that the audience often equates him with the real Shakespeare in history in an atmosphere full of traversalism.
In the same year, Joseph Fiennes starred "back-to-back" in another epic masterpiece, Elizabeth, this time replaced by the Australian actress Kate Blanchett, known as the "Great Devil". She plays Elizabeth I, who has gone from being a simple maiden to an iron-fisted queen, while Joseph Fiennes plays the role of her crush.
In this film, Joseph Fiennes shows a tender side of affectionate looking back, interpreting the classical beauty of the fallen nobility, which is also complementary to his own temperament. The deep and mysterious eyes and handsome and charming appearance have made many people fall for it.
In addition to the two masterpieces of "Shakespeare Love" and "Elizabeth", Joseph Fiennes also has a good performance in the popular American drama "American Horror Story Season 2". It is worth mentioning that in 2016, he also starred in the war film "The Ultimate Victory" directed by Xian Qiran, a suffering Olympic champion Li Airui.
After that, however, Joseph Fiennes never made a new film. Compared to his brother Ralph Fiennes, who is still active on the big screen, he almost disappeared from the movie stage, which has to be a bit regrettable.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > "snow hidden" by Hollywood? Calm and dedicated, he encountered a career bottleneck</h1>
Joseph Fiennes also belongs to the kind of actor who is older and more handsome, and although he has become a little bald at the age of 50, he still can't hide that handsomeness. Judging from his performance history, there are not many film works he has starred in, but most of them belong to the kind that have no box office effect, which also makes him encounter a lot of embarrassment.
There is a good look, and the acting skills are not bad, but it is not hot. After experiencing the early peak moments, his fame and influence were much worse than before, and he could only star in niche films, which was difficult to stimulate the enthusiasm of the audience. In the highly competitive entertainment industry, there is no sustained high-quality production, which will soon be forgotten, and Joseph Fiennes's situation has been self-deprecating by Hollywood's "snow hiding".
Joseph Fiennes did not stop and did not give up his acting career, but the reality of his almost disappearance shows that he is encountering a bottleneck in his career. I hope that this British actor with temperament and personality can get out of the predicament and confusion as soon as possible.
