Too many mistakes ...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ralph Fiennes: The Unauthorized Biography (Paperback)
Too many mistakes for my taste :( There were so many obvious mistakes in this book. If York's simple research on scenes from The English Patient was so inaccurate, it makes me wonder how inaccurate the rest of his research for the book was. (How difficult is it to watch a film and get the quotes/senarios right?) Does have some nice photos.

Exhaustive search on the man behind the curtain,
This review is from: Ralph Fiennes: The Unauthorized Biography (Paperback)
It's an excellent book, I must say, although it can be updated. The authors however is yet to prowl further into his private life... if he wants to make this a must-have for all Ralph Fiennes fans, that is. Another prob. is that it tends to lack good pictures, pictures of his childhood days and his family. But since this is the only Ralph Fiennes autobiography available, it is worth a read if you're into his works though.

This review is from: Ralph Fiennes: The Unauthorized Biography (Paperback)
As stated in a previous review, this *biography is definitely for the beginning Fiennes fan. For those who have followed Mr. Fiennes career and *life* for the past 4 years, save your money. Lots of rehash of previous interviews to be found in many magazine,newspaper clippings etc. Chances are you've read this stuff ten times over! No enlightening look into the soul of Mr. Fiennes, at least not anymore than he and author will let you! Besides this reads like a last minute, half-hearted term paper!
