Lawrence amazed as elder daughter Agnes, pulling us into her character and the story with a level of gravitas not generally found in one so young and with a comedy background at that. Following <a href=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/movies\/movies_view.php?editid1=433\"><em>The Poker House<\/em><\/a><em>,<\/em> Lawrence stole the international spotlight, and an Academy Award nomination, with <em>Winter\u2019s Bone<\/em>, followed by fun turns in the action adventure, <em>X-Men: First Class<\/em> and Jodie Foster\u2019s dark comedy, <a href=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/movies\/moviesharkdeblore.com\/site\/movies\/movies_view.php?editid1=557\"><em>The Beaver<\/em><\/a><em>. <\/em>But the buzz has been brewing for sometime now as the world has awaited her appearance as Katniss Everdeen in THE HUNGER GAMES. That wait is now over as THE HUNGER GAMES opens March 23, 2012. In preparation of the big day, Lawrence spent some time talking to us during the press junket, shedding light on Katniss and what makes Jennifer Lawrence tick.<\/p>\n<p>When one looks at Lawrence\u2019s major screen roles, there appears to be a common thread of playing economically downtrodden young women living in rural, lower class areas, and being forced to prematurely take on matriarchal roles in the family. When I asked her if this is a conscious decision and what is it about these women that speak to her, Lawrence was thoughtful. &#8221; Before I get a script, I\u2019m like, \u2018Does she like the forest? Does she have younger siblings?\u2019 I don\u2019t really know what it is. Jodie Foster once told me that twenty years from now I would look back at my career and see a pattern, and understand what it had to do with my life. Now, I\u2019m just like, \u2018I don\u2019t know.\u2019 I\u2019m just as puzzled as everyone else.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One thing that Lawrence does consider when looking at a script is the director. &#8220;That\u2019s something I\u2019ve always looked at. It\u2019s always been about the script and the director for me. There are directors that I want to work with and that I admire. You can love a script, but if it doesn\u2019t have a good director, it won\u2019t be that [one, I take].&#8221; Lawrence is also easy-going when it comes to shooting. &#8220;I like to adapt to a director\u2019s way of working. I love doing that. Each director is so different, and you have to adapt to this new way of doing something. That\u2019s what\u2019s amazing to me. That\u2019s why I love directors. I don\u2019t want a director to have to work around me. I think it<strong>\u2019<\/strong>s more fun for me to come in on their thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2486\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-05-400x266.png\" alt=\"hunger-games-05\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-05-400x266.png 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-05-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-05.png 834w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Admittedly daunting is taking on the role of such a well known and beloved character like Katniss Everdeen. &#8220;Normally, when you\u2019re coming out with a movie, nobody has really seen the character before. You\u2019re just giving it to them. [With Katniss] I\u2019m playing a character that most people have already had in their mind, and heard her speak in their mind, and seen her. That\u2019s a scary thing to go into, knowing that so many people already have pictures or an idea of what your character is.&#8221; And even Lawrence herself was not immune to the preconceived charms of Katniss . &#8220;What I read and how I understood her and my perception and understanding of her is what I portrayed her to be in the movie.&#8221; Very helpful with THE HUNGER GAMES was the source material itself. Having the book as a reference point &#8220;[is] an amazing thing because I get to have my character\u2019s inner dialogue, which never happens.&#8221; But Lawrence was always cognizant that &#8220;when you\u2019re making a film, the book is a huge tool in making the script. Once you have the script, then you<strong>\u2019<\/strong>re making a movie and you have to let go of the book. As an actor, I held onto the inner dialogue. But, you do have to let go of the book, when you start making the movie.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the emotional strength of Katniss is the physical which required some intense training by Lawrence. &#8220;Running, free running &#8211; which is for agility &#8211; archery, climbing, combat and yoga.&#8221; And of course tree climbing, which Lawrence admits she is quite skilled at, &#8220;If I have a harness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2500\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-07-400x266.png\" alt=\"hunger-games-07\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-07-400x266.png 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-07-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hunger-games-07.png 834w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thus far in her career, Lawrence has worked with some very strong directors, some very strong female directors. So how does THE HUNGER GAMES\u2019 Gary Ross compare? &#8220;He can communicate with every single actor. He can make anything work. I\u2019m better with technical stuff. Just tell me what you don\u2019t like and I\u2019ll fix it. Don\u2019t tell me to think about [method visuals or imaginary what ifs]. That doesn\u2019t work for me. Just tell me what\u2019s right and what\u2019s wrong, and just tell me what to do. So, he was very technical with me. If somebody else needed more emotional guidance, then he could do that.&#8221; Expounding on Ross and with praise similar to that bestowed by co-star Donald Sutherland, &#8220;He can work with any actor. He can communicate about the lighting and the camera. He\u2019s a genius. He was one of those directors that has an amazing vision and a very specific vision, and he never once gave that up, which is hard when you\u2019re doing a studio film. But, to the studio\u2019s credit, they were amazing as well. They were all fans of the books. So, he\u2019s strong and he\u2019s brilliant, but he also listens to everybody. You never feel like you\u2019re being controlled. It was very artistically freeing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In terms of the actual production, THE HUNGER GAMES required cameras at all angles, and in some cases, going 360 degrees around the characters and the action. As unrattled by cameras as she is by the press, Lawrence is firm in her belief that &#8220;you can\u2019t ever let yourself be thrown by cameras. That\u2019s never good for an actor. That\u2019s also trusting your director. That\u2019s why, when you\u2019re reading a script, you find a director that you want to work with and make sure they\u2019re somebody that you trust, so that when you see something odd or something different, you know [you\u2019re safe]. I knew there was nothing to worry about. I knew the camera was behind me and that was odd, but I didn<strong>\u2019<\/strong>t think twice about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2522\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hg-10.jpg\" alt=\"hg 10\" width=\"400\" height=\"260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hg-10.jpg 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/hg-10-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Already reminiscing about the film, Lawrence is quick to talk about her favorite scene in the film. &#8220;The scene with Stanley Tucci, before I go to the Games. That was just hilarious, to see that. That was also the moment that Katniss realizes that it\u2019s a game, and if she wants a chance to win, she has to play along.&#8221; But working with Tucci wasn\u2019t her only happy memory. Woody Harrelson, who plays Katniss\u2019 mentor Haymitch Abernathy made a huge impact on Lawrence.<\/p>\n<p>Describing herself as someone who tries &#8221; to be a sponge and soak up as much as I can when I\u2019m working with people like that&#8221;, I couldn\u2019t resist asking her what she soaked up from Harrelson. &#8220;Woody is the nicest person in the entire world. You know that he would be the exact same, no matter what his job was or what he was doing. He is just still that guy from Texas. He can strike up a conversation with anybody. It almost seems odd, seeing him on a movie set. He\u2019s one of the most incredible actors in the world, and he almost doesn\u2019t fit on a set. He\u2019s just too relaxed. He has no air about him. You see him hanging out and it\u2019s almost like somebody brought their really nice cousin from Texas, and then, all of a sudden, he\u2019s on camera.&#8221; Regaling us with a &#8220;Woody Tale&#8221;, Lawrence was almost giddy. &#8220;[H]e does backwards acting. We had a scene where I stab a knife through his fingers on the table, and to do that, you have to do everything backwards, and then they put it forward in post. So, we would start [indicating a knife in the table], and then, slowly, everything would go [backwards]. Woody said, \u2018I\u2019m even doing backwards acting. When I get here, I start to feel my desire for the jam.\u2019 He was full of gems like that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When all is said and done, Lawrence is not blind to the obvious.\u00a0 A role that so easily could have been written for a male (and generally is), she is particularly enthusiastic about Katniss\u2019 being female as a sign of the times. &#8220;I feel like, not only have we gotten to the place where we have a strong female lead, like Lara Croft being the female James Bond, we have somebody who\u2019s not even the female James Bond. She is somebody who is literally really a young girl, being thrown into this situation and not knowing if she\u2019s going to survive it. That says a lot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>#<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: debbie lynn elias Aptly described by Donald Sutherland as &#8220;Jennifer Lawrence Olivier&#8221;, I first met Jennifer Lawrence at Los Angeles Film Festival with her dramatic debut in Lori Petty\u2019s semi-autobiographical dramatization, The Poker House, a film that not only spawned Lawrence\u2019s dramatic career but propelled Chloe Grace Moretz equally forward.
