"I feel like it lent itself to this movie. It wasn't exploitative. There's nothing that bothers me about seeing people have intimate scenes in films. The woman has clothes on, has full makeup, and the man has boxers - that's just not how it works," the "The Spectacular Now" star explained.

She also added that she thought that the plot of her new indie movie, "White Bird in a Blizzard," is a realistic portrayal of maturing and growing up.

"My opinion is that intimacy is a natural part of being a human being. Especially when you're young, you're exploring that part of yourself for the first time. I think that a lot of films that have young people in them don't often explore that factor for various reasons. But I do love Gregg [Araki]'s films in that way. Because they are truthful and they're daring. Especially this one."

In "White Bird," Woodley plays a 17-year-old girl who experiences the loss of her mother at a time when she is discovering and struggling with her own sexual exploration.

A little tidbit about the movie: Woodley was cast and filmed for her role in the indie flick before even starring in the movie adaptations of "The Fault in Our Stars" and "Divergent."
