"We meet before the movie and she gives you charts with sounds on them and makes a tape of examples. While they are setting up the scene, I go with her to the trailer and we go through the scene and correct the speech"

About this Quote
This quote by Albert Finney is describing the procedure of preparing for a movie scene. Before the motion picture begins, the actress consults with Finney and provides him with charts with sounds on them and makes a tape of examples. This is to help Finney practice and best his lines for the scene. While the crew is setting up the scene, Finney and the actress go to the trailer and go through the scene together, making any necessary corrections to the speech. This procedure is very important to ensure that the scene is carried out correctly and that the discussion is precise. It is a collective effort in between the star and the actress to ensure that the scene is as ideal as possible.
