Yesterday was Ralph Fiennes's 58th birthday, many fans know him through the role of Voldemort in "Harry Potter", in fact, he has also starred in many other excellent works, today to tell the story of uncle.
It is reported that the film "Ace Agent: Origins" starring Uncle La was once again rescheduled to be released in North America on March 12, 2021 due to the impact of the epidemic. In this regard, many netizens commented: "The sword is not old."
An acting career that began with Hamlet
Ralph Fiennes, whose entire family was in the art industry, had a keen interest in the arts from an early age, and at the age of eight he received a precious gift, a video of Hamlet, which his mother had given him, and it was with one of his monologues that he was admitted to the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts.
He has always wanted to be a performer who wins with his acting skills, rather than surviving in the show business world with the traits of "star". Since he was a child, he did not particularly like to express emotions with words, and the perfect use of body language and eyes when performing has become a highlight of him, and now he is a mainstay in the British film and television academic school.
Many fans were initially attracted by Ralph Fiennes's handsome appearance, whether it was the cold and cruel Nazi officer in "Schindler's List", or the severe burn patient in "The English Patient", and later the calm gentleman in "The Grand Budapest Hotel", who could always suck the audience's attention away with his three-dimensional facial features, especially the deep eyes, when he appeared.
Boldly challenge the "disfigured" character
Speaking of Ralph Fiennes's appearance, it is necessary to mention the evil wizard Voldemort played by him in Harry Potter. Ralph Fiennes, who has no nose, perfectly presents an evil but elegant villain wizard in front of the screen. He held the blood-stained wand in his hand, stroking it as if he were admiring a work of art, and his obsession with magic, calm and elegant, vividly highlighted the image of Voldemort, a devil who was completely blackened, who regarded human life as grass, evil and unscrupulous.
Although Ralph Fiennes was covered in demonic makeup, he was able to use his eyes perfectly, and with a change in Voldemort's gaze, you could guess what evil plan he was brewing. However, compared with Ralph Fiennes's other handsome images, Voldemort can be said to be a disfigured character, and many netizens joked: "On the importance of the nose."
There is also a classic improvisation in Deathly Hallows, where Voldemort embraces Malfoy and even awkwardly sat on all the actors present, but this awkward hug shows that except for Voldemort's hypocritical care for wanting to buy people's hearts on the eve of the Great War, it is left behind by the director.
Charming villain character
Also playing the villain role, the Nazi officer in "Schindler's List" perfectly inherits the super high appearance of Ralph Fiennes. He presents a contradictory role in this film, on the one hand the Nazi officer is violent and cruel, killing countless people and being cold-blooded and ruthless. But on the other hand, from his deep eyes, you can see the desire for love and the fear of love that he expresses. Even though it is a black-and-white film, his expressive acting skills interpret the character of this German officer in a very three-dimensional way, which is loved and hated.
The director of Schindler's List said of Ralph Fiennes: "By the time I got to the test, I knew he was really the person I wanted, and you could see how the kind smile in his eyes was suddenly replaced by a bunch of intimidating coldness." "
Saturated professionalism
In order to get closer to the weight of Nazi officer Amun, Ralph Fiennes gained 25 pounds and had a few more rounds of extra flesh on his stomach, but his handsomeness on screen did not diminish at all. Through Schindler's List, Ralph Fiennes received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor, which greatly increased his popularity.
A variety of characters can be perfectly mastered
In addition to the above two classic villain roles, Emmaus played by Ralph Fiennes in "The English Patient" shows beautiful love to the fullest. He's always good at conveying his emotions with his own eyes, and in this film you can clearly feel the fire of love for Catherine burning in his deep eyes.
I have to admit that handsome appearance is a big advantage, but if you want to become a good actor, you can never do without solid acting skills. Ralph Fiennes was deeply influenced by Shakespeare's stage plays since childhood, and he worked hard to create classic characters that people will remember for many years after watching the movie.
For example, the psychopath with rabbit lips and a "red dragon" on his body, the gentle politician in "The Immortal Gardener", the cold and ruthless duke image in "The Duchess", the naïve and fearless teenager in "Oscar and Lucinda", and the crazy and sentimental music producer in "Holiday Thrill". These classic characters, as long as you have seen the movie once will not forget.
It's just as true to love
Ralph was divorced once, and after the divorce he came together with a British actress who was 18 years older than him, and in terms of feelings, his attitude and attitude towards acting have something in common, he values the inside, he values the truth. Their true love for each other does not have much to do with age and appearance, but more is that her inner beauty attracts Ralph, just like he is on screen, even if his appearance is discarded, he can still interpret the character three-dimensionally, and express the emotion sincerely.
Yesterday was Ralph Fiennes' birthday, let's wish him a happy birthday and look forward to his better work in the future.
