“I had to do 10 ‘wall runs,’ where you run at the wall as hard as you can to get traction. I ran at it and my foot didn’t go up, so I caught the wall with my stomach. My trainer thought I had burst my spleen. I had to get a CAT scan and go into a tube where they put this fiery liquid in your body.” — Jennifer Lawrence, who is playing Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, describing a health remedy that sounds like it’s straight out of the Capitol. It’s a movie, Jennifer. A movie.
