Ralph Fiennes is one of the best actors I've ever seen. His performances in the films I saw I found that he possess a kind of magic to act a completely multiple personalities or individual characters. I sometimes can't recognize him as the same actor Ralph Fiennes, from one film to another. Great actor, indeed!!

[@Twisted_utopia]

Agreed. He is very under rated today. Another fine actor like him is Tom Hardy. These are real actors, not just good looking people cast into movies that become actors. Fiennes is phenomenal.

[@TrueIronMaidenFan]

Projekt Zycie if we are talking about actors who disapear into complex characters that are completely different from one another not only are Tom Hardy and Ralph Finness amazing like you guys mentioned, but I would add Gary Oldman, and Guy Pearce to that list as well. I have seen popular actors like Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale do that to, but are not nearly as consistent.,

[@Twisted_utopia]

Michael Colby Agreed 100%

[@TrueIronMaidenFan]

Projekt Zycie Cool that some people can spot a good actor from a bad one.

[@JackSmith-xt7fj]

Incredible performance, it is probably the most chilling film ever made, it is one of those films that although it won't be one of your favourites in terms of best films to watch because it is hard to watch, but it is no doubt one of the best films i have ever seen, an amazing terrifying depiction of the most horrifying atrocities in human history and one that everyone must see at some point in their life to remember those who died and make sure such things never happen again in history. Hats of to Spielberg for pulling off this masterpiece as it was a very daring film to undertake.

Never mind the fact that America was so upset about this while doing the same if not worst atrocities to African Americans right in their own backyard (Literally) I don't understand how so many look at the Holocaust with sympathy & empathy & endure listening to the stories over & over while at the same time telling African Americans to stfu when telling stories about slavery. It just blows my mind.

[@mattbarbarich3295]

Yes agree, still would've like some body like Milos Forman to direct the film. A central European who knows the nuances of the area, Germans and recent history.

[@lindseys8742]

My daughter is fascinated by this film and the Holocaust. She portrayed Anne Frank in school. She wanted this movie for her 11th bday. This movie marked her. It’s terrifying but incredible to see and understand. I know it was hard for Spielberg to experience and direct. The horror of human capability… it’s important to recognize.

This made Ralph Fiennes acting royalty. It was a performance on a par with Anthony Hopkins in Remains of the Day and Silence of the Lambs, Meryl Streep in Sophie's Choice, Robert Deniro in Taxi Driver,:Russell Crowe in A Beautiful mind

[@Richard-by5gm]

I agree with you my friend.

[@Void304]

This is a prime example of what a fantastic actor Ralph Fiennes really is. His portrayal of Amon Goeth's inhumane cruelty was so convincing it made him scary to watch in this film.

[@fabzuc]

he was so great that anytime I see him in another movie I can't think of him as another caracther-....He made a step stone, that's why he should have won the Oscar

[@Void304]

fabio zuccheri I agree. He should have. He probably didn't get it because the Academy was afraid of what people would think if he won a prestigious award for his portrayal of such a sadistic human being or something equally as nonsensical.

[@anglosaxon5874]

Apparently, he was so life like [he looked like Amon Goeth twin], he scarred some of the advisor jews [who were there]. It made him depressed for a while that he could upset people.

[@bohun28]

Fiennes obviously remembered that this character was a human being before he was a cold killer. He was once someone's child, and innocent of any evil doing. He had dreams, ambitions, passions before it all became corrupted by greed, power and evil. Fiennes manages to bring this glimpse of some tiny remnant of humanity to a completely inhuman individual and in the process reminds us that anybody is potentially capable of such acts. This is what makes the role especially brilliant and terrifying.

[@saraburnham6465]

Exactly.. that’s why it’s brilliant work. He said that Spielberg directed him to have that cough and bring his hanky with him. And he said his human failings showed he is a man doing a job. Which brought so much depth. Unlike the usual natzi characters you see. Amazing storytelling and techniques they have. And fine attention to detail that’s so appreciated

Ralph Fiennes is beautiful; yet the character he plays is an evil sociopath. At 1:56 we see part of the scene in which Fiennes tells Ben Kingsley to "look at me." I saw the movie again last night and in this scene Fiennes gives the most disturbing, bone-chilling look of any movie actor that I can recall. It's just pure evil. Simple as that.

[@bohun28]

The scary part is that he manages to portray just a figment of humanity in this bestial man, not through anything he says so much as how he looks at the camera at some points, just in his eyes.
