The method, as it is called, involves the actor emotionally identifying with the character they are going to play, without pretending feelings, as if they were really becoming that person, imitating their language and gestures. “Although I have dedicated myself intensely to certain roles, I honestly believe that it is a luxury that women do not have. I don’t think children or partners would be very understanding if I insisted on being called ‘Jackie Kennedy’ all the time.” stated.
