People in real life don’t really know where they are going to be either positioning themselves or how they will be saying their words. When people goof during the first take, it usually looks realistic. Download This Image

That way, you can manipulate a character to the other side of the room. But, if they say the wrong thing, it might locate that action in a particular part of the scene. It’s a mechanical need.

I have enjoyed her work for years and been amazed at how she gets into her own thoughts onto the screen in a very elegant and focused way. You have to see this.

From my limited experience, you can really blow test screenings by conducting them in the wrong way.

It’s very easy to find even great actors reading it more like a reading. Things aren’t really coming alive yet, even though you know they will.
