Samantha Morton is an English actress, screen writer and director who was born on 13th may, 1977 at Nottingham, England, UK. Her parents Peter and Pamela Morton got divorced when she was just 3 years old and got new spouses. She has eight brothers and sisters. Till the age of 8 she was with her father who was alcoholic abusive and her mother was in violent relationship with her second husband so as per court order she didn't live with any of the parents. She was raised in foster home. She is the finest actress of her generation, winning Oscar nomination for Sweet and Lowdown(1999) and In America(2002). She got critical appraisal in Minority Report(2002), John Carter(2012) and Cosmopolis(2012).
Samantha Morton Religion
Samantha has quoted"My foster mother died and I did not have a relationship with my real parents. I know who they are. It's not upsetting; it's just the way it is. You cannot change things. My childhood isn't like an albatross around my neck".Her childhood was quite disturbing for her and she didn't get any thing from her parents in inheritance. So she seems to be non religious. But she is not Atheist.
Samantha Morton Political Views
She is having interest in politics but didn't put a step forward in the field. She has quoted "There are days when I thank my lucky stars that I'm OK and that I'm sane, and wonder how I ended up doing this job. Then there are days when I think, is this the right job for me still? Shouldn't I be doing something in social care or politics?" She is interested in charity work and we guess that she is making her way to politics. We hope if she comes into politics then she will definitely make some refinement.
