LOS ANGELES (AP) - Nicole Kidman says she needed two things to help her learn how to twitch her nose as Elizabeth Montgomery had done on the '60s sitcom "Bewitched."
"I needed a mirror. And I needed the slo-mo on the video in the VCR. And I would put her nose in slow motion. And then I would put the mirror and I would try to mimic it," the Oscar-winning actress told reporters recently, according to AP Radio.
Kidman also needed help sitting on her broom in a ladylike pose for her role in the remake of "Bewitched."
"They had a harness. You get a harness on and then they lift it up and you're like flying and you're saying, 'Does this look OK?' 'Cross your legs!'"
In the new film, Kidman plays Isabel Bigelow, a blissfully naive (and good) witch who wants to give up her supernatural powers for mundane, suburban, mortal life.
Kidman says she would love to have a witch's powers for a day - especially when she's having a bad day. "It's kind of nice to be able to ... walk through and blow up the cappuccino machine and make a dog jump into your arms and make him speak in tongues," Kidman told reporters recently, according to AP Radio.
