13 Things You Didn't Know About Shailene Woodley

1. Her Favourite Movies Include Pocahontas & Dirty Dancing

Another question actors are frequently asked is what their own favourite movies are, and Woodley's answers consist of a large frothy number of movies, such as Dirty Dancing, Moulin Rouge, Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, Rent (OK, not so frothy) and Pocahontas. In fact, the Disney animation appears to have struck a particular chord with the actress, as she went on to say about the movie, "Some movies have made me cry; some movies have made me laugh, but I€™ve never thought, 'Wow €“ if it weren€™t for that movie, I€™d be a different person'. Except Pocahontas. It€™s true! If you listen to the lyrics they actually have incredibly valuable lessons for human beings to learn, and whenever I need a pick-me-up I just watch Pocahontas." Disney movies hold a warm place in the hearts of many, though Pocahontas is a pretty unconventional choice, which suits Woodley just fine. Got any other tasty tidbits about the rising Divergent star?
