Description: Here's a nice clip from the movie Drive (one of the best films of 2011) Bryan Cranston's character is cleaning a car part while he delivers his dialog, which is a great example of a secondary action. Giving your character something to do while they talk will make the shot feel much more natural. I also like the subtle flirting that's going on between Ryan Gosling & Carey Mulligan.
