Naturally, my body language changes given whatever environment I'm in.
Body language is essential for an actress, even if you don't use your body in an athletic way. Just to be free, to use it like your voice. A body can be small and have incredible violence. A body talks.
When you're on set all day, and you don't look people in the eye, it's really relaxing.

I know, for me, that I have always been very conscious of how I dress when I go to the studio, I'm very conscious of my body language when I'm working - a lot of times, I'm the only female in the room. It's a very male-dominated profession. I'm always around guys. Guys are going to try you all day, and they're going to flirt all day.

For me, actors have to have a character, an aura, body language. They're not models. They used to call actors models. But I want them to participate in the film.
We're losing social skills, the human interaction skills, how to read a person's mood, to read their body language, how to be patient until the moment is right to make or press a point. Too much exclusive use of electronic information dehumanises what is a very, very important part of community life and living together.
Before you get into the mind, you have to inhabit the physicality. Body language is a great way of speaking.
Language is a more recent technology. Your body language, your eyes, your energy will come through to your audience before you even start speaking.
