To get the perfect performances, true actors at hearts would go to any extremes. Even if it means taking up a real life profession of the character you are going to play in your movie. Kate Beckinsale is one of the kind who got a first hand lesson in entertainment journalism after she took a job with a U.S. newspaper to prepare for a film role.

Beckinsale, 35, plays the role of a reporter in the new movie 'Nothing But The Truth', and to get her part right she spent her time shadowing journalists on the Los Angeles Times.

During this time, her on the job experience gave her a better insight of the journalist job. "We are slightly sort of under the 'us and them' thing. It's a little like enemy lines - but when I was there I found it was amazingly similar to acting. It was quite nice to go, 'I kind of get it more than I thought I would'," the Daily Express quoted her as saying.

"People complain about the paparazzi and the paparazzi go, 'Well, you put yourself out there.' And I had to have my character sort of think that way," she added.

Well, its all about 'lights, camera and action'.
