It takes a great deal of acting to remove the humanity from behind your eyes.

A woman walked up to Fiennes while he was in costume and told him that the Nazis didn't kill anyone who didn't deserve it.

Fiennes promptly dragged her by her arm and collar off the set and threatened to have her arrested if she returned.

I didn't even need to post gifs for this. He's terrifying even in still photos.

It took me 2 good hours to understand they were 2 different actors. All along i was like 'omg why is he so mean' 'oh no he's nice' 'ahhhhh!'
