Episode Ninety-Seven: Carmen Moore
Carmen Moore’s filmography is filled with complex characters wrestling with big emotions – characters like Simone on Godiva’s, Loreen on Arctic Air, and Leona Stoney on Blackstone. In the last decade, the industry seems to have woken up to Carmen’s immense talent: she’s received three Leo Awards for Best Lead Performance in a Dramatic Series for Blackstone, the 2013 Lorena Gale Woman of Distinction Award from UBCP, and a Leo nomination and a Best Supporting Actress Award at the American Indian Film Festival for Rustic Oracle. She recently participated in a widely heralded UBCP/ACTRA panel about the challenges faced by Indigenous actors and filmmakers in Hollywood North. In this poignant conversation with Sabrina Furminger, Carmen reflects on her journey from scared and quiet child to fearless performer, as well as filming Outlander in Scotland and how Godiva’s Simone and Blackstone’s Leona changed her life – but not before hearing what legendary showrunner, director, and frequent collaborator Gary Harvey really thinks about her work.
