| | | Ralph Fiennes: "I love Voldemort."
In a recent interview with The New York Times Magazine, Ralph Fiennes briefly discussed his role as Voldemore in ' Goblet of Fire'. Quote:
'At first, it wasn't scary enough,' Fiennes said. 'They had to fix my lack of nose. And I was helped by lots of shadows -- that increased the menace. So much of movie acting is in the lighting. And in loving your characters. I try to know them, and with that intimacy comes love. And now, I love Voldemort.'"
Manohla Dargis, a New York Times movie reviewer, also suggests Ralph Fiennes for a Best Supporting Actor gong at the Oscars for his role as the Dark Lord.
Additionally, Ralph also appeared on Inside the Actor's Studio on Bravo yesterday and briefly discussed his role in the fourth Potter film once more. The entire Potter-related transcript can be read here. Quote: JL: Was it difficult acting behind it, or . . . RF: No, not at all. I mean, it was my own scalp with no hair, some pieces here (indicating his brow) to take out the eyebrows, some horrible teeth I put in, um, and the rest was just paint (indicating his hands and arms) . . . transfer . . . they painted, made me very pale and they made these brilliant transfers which they just sponged on every day. JL: Has Harry Potter brought you a new audience, do you think? RF: I never understood the phenomenon of it until I went to the premiere here. I've never seen anything like that.

Okay so maybe he's been playing the part too long...uhm, no. He was evil though...

Aww that was one of the most fullfilling interviews I've read from Ralph! I love it so much!
I so wanted to know about all the make-up side of his Voldemort. I hurd in an interview from Mike Newell that they hardly had any special effects and I was like ... "But what did you do to turn him into Voldemort?" Now I know!
It's one thing acting a character, but it's another "loving" the character! The minute that happens then it makes it like a real person! I'm so pleased with how much Ralph has taken Voldemort into himself and made him real! Oh there couldn't of been a better candidate in my opinion! *Hugs Ralph*

Too right. Ralph Fiennes definitely gives a stunning performance in the film! And can I just say that when Harry dives behind the gravestone and Voldemort shouts "Come out Harry! I want to see the light leave your eyes!" And then Harry walks out and faces Voldemort and the deatheaters. I LOVED that moment!!! It plays so much in the 6th book, and Harry was so brave. Go Ralph!

I watched Inside the Actor's Studio with Ralph Fiennes. He was really funny and brilliant during that whole interview. Without a nose, he's still such a talented actor.  Anyways I'm impressed. Nice interview in the New York Times as well. Hope to see him come back to play Voldemort again.

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3   of course, he looked super duper brilliant in the movie - though not as scary as I expected Voldemort to be...Anyways, his acting was very good and he secured an excellent part by winning the auditions. Of course, everyone lurrvess Voldy. YAYNESS! *Glomps and smooches Voldy and runs away*
Loveness,
~~Jay~~
