Vera Farmiga does Ukrainian folk dancing when she is drunk.
The 'Safe House' actress - whose parents hail from the eastern European country - learnt the traditional dance when she was younger and her entire family like to hit the dancefloor when they have drunk too much alcohol.
She said: "I was a Ukrainian folk dancer in my teens, and I toured the country in 1991, shortly before the break-up of the Soviet Union.
"Imagine a hybrid of Irish step dancing and Russian Cossack. The whole family still whips it up at weddings -largely due to inebriation. If the acting doesn't work out, it's definitely something I could fall back on."
However, Vera's career has continued to do well since she gained an Oscar nomination in 'Up in the Air' in 2009, and she admits she got on very well with her co-star George Clooney and would have loved to do a sequel.
In an interview with Stylist magazine, she said: "Who did I have the strongest chemistry with? Well, George, of course. I just wish we could have done a sequel.
"And Sam Rockwell in 'Joshua' and Matt Damon in 'The Departed' - he's a good sparring partner."
