Jennifer Lawrence Coached By Olympic Archer For Movie

For the movie, "The Hunger Games" coming this spring, Jennifer Lawrence was coached by four-time Olympic archer Khatuna Lorig who is trying to make her fifth Olympic team.

"When she draws the string back, she does really well." Lorig said about Lawrence. "I was surprised; I even told her if she wants to be a professional archer, I think she has potential."

Lorig first entered Olympics at age 18 from Soviet Union and her first team won a bronze medal at the 1992 Barcelona Games.

It's Lorig's first time coaching a movie star.  "I think maybe she'll look like a professional archer on the screen," Lorig said. "I wasn't on the screen with her to shoot the movie so if they catch some mistakes in her archery shooting, that's not my fault."
