I grew up in a Ukrainian Catholic-turned-Christian household, and that is my family's faith.

As an actor, you're sort of the court-appointed lawyer for the character.

I spent a lot of time reading blogs by mothers who had children with varying degrees of neural dysfunction, from schizophrenia to all sorts of different issues. And honestly, I don't think it's different for anybody. There's no right way to make sure your child will be emotionally and mentally healthier. It's just frustrating.

It's a delicate thing for me, with how involved I am in social media and being a part of people's lives in a way that they want me to.
Vera Farmiga
Image
I think I always try to be accommodating and open and available and proving for my director. I love to give as many takes as they want. I love to give them as many choices as they want.

I'm incredibly spiritual. There are like tens of thousands of denominations I don't fit in any one of those denominations comfortably. But I have a very personal relationship with God.

The nature of evil, the nature of it, it exists. It exists and I think within us we have the tools. If we have the will, we can combat it. I think the power is within us and it lies in our own conceptualization of God and positivity and compassion and love.

I feel my fuller-bodied characters are all in the independent films I do, and in the studio productions, I have to work harder to dimensionalize the characters. And that's certainly part of the job description of an actor - that's what you're supposed to do - but you have to work harder at it in the characters that I've encountered in studio films.

Image
I chase after inspiring stories.
Vera Farmiga
Image
I grew up in a Christian home. The strictness comes with religion in general. Whether you grew up Jewish or Orthodox Jewish or Muslim, there are certain rules and regulations. But my parents instilled in me the importance of defining God for yourself.
Vera Farmiga
Image
I think that films about faith made for faith-based communities have a certain tactic.
Vera Farmiga
Image
We're all sick of holy wars and bloodshed because religion is supposed to give us life and a better life and is supposed to bring out our best self. When it results in mass destruction and hatred and anxiety, it's the antithesis I think of what religion was designed to do.

I can't get my knickers in a twist about my age and ageing in an industry that caters to the ids of 14-year-olds.
Vera Farmiga
Image
I rely on my directors, a lot. I love being directed.

Image
I don't necessarily need Hollywood.

Image
I’m someone who can sit in a Buddhist temple, and I can sit with Pentecostals or with Orthodox Jews, and I still feel like I am in tune with all of them.

When you encounter sophistication in the creation of a female character, you thank the writers and you claim it.
