I could listen to him talk for hours! One of the greatest actors of this generation.

[@monserratmella-washburn1221]

My thought exactly... and he is such a gentleman.

[@Alexandra-jy9dy]

Exactly, great actor and such a nice person ❤️

[@ketihalili91]

MY NUMBER ONE!!!!

[@cindyj5522]

What a fantastic interview. I came upon Ralph Fiennes in Wuthering Heights. It is still one of my favorite films and my preferred rendering. He has an amazing combination of vulnerability, intensity, unpredictability, civility and huge personal and professional depth. He is obviously very intellectual, but we have seen him transform into a raw and primitive state. Both an actor's actor and a director's dream. And heavens above, such a gorgeous man.

[@user-nw3lk3io1m]

Captivating man, handsome and down to earth

[@Pfinston]

And here I thought I was his only FAN. He has great appeal because he is authentic, whether he is acting or being interviewed. We live in a culture which preaches to hide who we are. We embrace roles we believe define us and expect to feel whole and present. Instead, we become convinced we will be found lacking: too old, too fat, too conservative, and so on. We are told we live with freedom, but have accepted the premise we can only survive through vigilant conformity. Actors like Mr. Fiennes inspires us to celebrate the beauty of human imperfection and knowing that’s the point.

[@cindyj5522]

Yes...which flies in the face of his cultural and national membership. His upper lip can become so stiff when he is sneering or scowling or raging but not such that he is British.

[@carol_2302]

I love how every people comment about how great he is as an actor and a loveble person, how he is so passionate about his work and family, and there is a kind of observation at the end saying "and so handsome!". 😂❤

[@marthacanady9441]

He never topped his role in “The English Patient”. Simply magnificent.

[@douchkanikoliic6182]

Constant Gardner was another great part.

[@sarahdlp524]

He should have got the Oscar for it, I think the committee panicked about how many awards it was voted for.

[@debh6304]

He looks as if he is trying not to cry the whole interview

[@blackblake3658]

He has an eye disorder, which makes his eyes so beautiful but watery and sad.

[@affordingstyle]

@@blackblake3658No, he doesn’t. Please don’t spread misinformation, k? Thanks!

How not to fall in love with him ? This woman has strong nerves because if I was her, I would have fainted 10 times during the interview

Yes!!!!🔥🔥🔥💖💖💖

Boy I thought he was hot back in those days. After Schindler's List I was hooked!!

He got typecast as a doomed aristocrat.

Er ist sehr faszinierend und seine Schauspielkunst bewegt mich sehr. Ein sehr begabter Künstler und mit den schönsten ausdrucksstarken Augen. Ich werde ihn nächstes Jahr auf der Bühne sehen 🖤

I hated The English Patient. It's really a hoot actually....so over wrought.

[@lizannewhitlow1085]

I wish he would not cover his mouth when he speaks.

[@cindyj5522]

I think he can be a bit shy sometimes.

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

"SPIDER" WAS A VERY UNDERATED FILM👎👎👎👎

[@shugaroony]

He's has a great nervous energy about him which makes him very spontaneous it seems on screen and it works very well. Also there is a vulnerable sensitivity about him too and that makes him always watchable. Excellent actor you never tire of seeing.

[@trumpetsharps4496]

In my opinion, the finest, most deeply subtle, thoughtful & sensitive actor of recent times. Too few roles deserve his gift of rendition.

[@cruelscientist6829]

He has such a warmth about him.

[@detectivefiction3701]

Oh, God bless! He seems about to burst into tears commenting on the aftermath of SCHINDLER'S LIST (as his mother died during that time) and on "Mary," who cast him in HARRY POTTER and who also died. Yet he's inspired and inspiring when discussing his art and the wonderful directors who impacted him (e.g., Spielberg). Such a dear, gentle, sensitive, gifted man. And so handsome, too.

[@gszavics8531]

I love his eyes, so beautiful and expressive.

[@sospeciallyme9096]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ralph Fiennes. He is an amazing personality

[@preteristlab-endtimes5683]

After seeing him in the English Patient 1000 times I am surprised by how natural he is. He has a kind of awkward charm that tries to blink away that thing that lies beneath. It's very honest. (I must go back and rewatch The Patient. I miss that chap.)

[@OtogakureNoShinobi]

I know right! It's that genuineness that can be seen from his demeanor that makes him so charming!

[@gilliantherese7202]

I love this mans' work...I never get tired of anything he does. His portrait of Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights is MAGNIFICENT!

[@reggiej6542]

he can narrate my life. What a voice!

[@alicjakalinowska9686]

Ralph is fantastic actor, very talented, very specific, very handsome. I like his beautiful voice 😀

[@Aegisth]

I never forget, when he was on a Jay Leno show with Brad Garrett from "Everybody loves Raymond", and Garrett obviously thought, he was one of the best actors that has ever existed, and Leno said to him: " Don't forget you sit beside a REAL actor!".

[@kamilkalinowski8501]

He is the best actor in the world . He is amazing .

[@anaid5387]

I watched Harry Potter but didnt notice him. And then one day i watched Schindlers List. Then i started educate myself about earlier Ralph Fiennes works. My favourite would still be his portrayal as Amon Goeth.

[@aghali93]

Same here 🤗

[@andrewjackwaai2789]

Have you seen Sunshine?

We all love Ralph. He is like a sunshine to me! Nice video, Thanks

Thank you very much for uploading this, BAFTA Guru. Fans all over the world who are not able to watch this interview live are grateful to you

[@karolinakocemba6291]

I’ve had the biggest crash on him as a young girl...English patient is still one of my favourite movies. He’s still so handsome but back then he was beautiful (Wuthering Heights!). No one like him now....

[@oliviahartlyn4388]

I like him I think every one loves him still😋😍

U are a super actor.count almasay,wow, what a movie! My best movie !

[@krasovselena]

OMG!Love him!

[@LittleB2007]

It's kind of sad that an actor of his training and skills is chiefly known as the faceless villain in kiddie fantasy franchise... I absolutely loved him in "Grand Budapest Hotel." He is one of the best comedians today; Not the stupid and loud so-called "comedians" but classy ones.

[@notsoaveragejoe2039]

I would say he is well known for many other things. He was an A lister long before Harry Potter. Schindler's List, English Patient, Constant Gardner, ect. He has a huge portfolio of great roles that he gets acclaim and recognition from as far as i'm concerned.

[@jackofalltrades6363]

You could use some paint for that gate you're keeping so securely.

[@daphnecui4595]

He would make a great Frollo. If disney ever make a live action version of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame they should cast him as Frollo.

it would be a dream to make a film with this guy

Hello Bafta team, I´m a filmmaker from Argentina. The interview series " A life in pictures" seem to be blocked in my country, is it possible to fix this ? I enjoy and learn from this kind of material. Thanks!!!

[@uditaparab5422]

My crush😘😍

[@focuspulling]

Jittery, fidgety camerawork by operators trying to be artsy but ending up looking like amateurs. Always a pity when such mere technicians intervene, ruining what's simply an interview with a great actor. Lots of jagged lines resulting from a poor transfer too (possibly interlacing problems). Ralph Fiennes deserves so much better!

[@meio4744]

What a stupidly condescending *self-serving* comment to get people to go to your channel by a "mere technician''.

[@user-br3bw7wr2l]

Where is his Knighthood ?

[@blackblake3658]

Not even an OBE.

[@JebJulian]

parody of effects he hates. plays it well

[@sammynox90]

He is my favorite actor. And I love his smile, his voice and my biggest wish is to stay a night with him... When I see him, I get wet between my legs.. Sorry when I make mistakes, I come from Germany and my English is not the best. Since 10 years, I dreamed of him. The best boyfriend you can wish... He is so intelligent and smart and lovely and.... Always interesting. Every film with him I have to see, 'cause love him so much

[@alicjakalinowska9686]

Anika, your English is ok! It's beautiful what you wrote. I agree! Ralph is wonderful actor. I also love his films. He has beautiful, artistic soul and open heart ❤️
