Ralph Fiennes: The Unauthorized Biography - Softcover

The first biography of one of the brightest, most talented stars of the 90s, whose starring role in ``The English Patient'' has made him the toast of Hollywood. Ralph Fiennes' meteoric rise to fame has made him the subject of much speculation. Sought after on both sides of the Atlantic after the spectacular, Oscar-winning success of ``The English Patient,'' he has become one of the cinema's hottest properties. As desirable as Brando and as English as David Niven, he is also a brilliant stage actor, acclaimed as one of the greatest Hamlets ever. Intensely private and media-shy, however, he remains an enigma. In this new unauthorized biography, journalist York Membery delves behind the headlines to uncover the nature of this curious and exciting man--from his bohemian childhood, through the early days of his acting career and his relationships, up to the very pinnacle of his current success. York Membery is a journalist and feature writer for Britain's Guardian and The Sunday Times. 224 pp 6 x 9 16 pp b/w photos
