What's the source on her character being Buddhist?

In the Serenity movie, during the scene when Mal comes to talk to Inara in what appears to be a Buddhist shrine. --Pentasyllabic 17:33, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

"Inara is highly skilled with a longbow" -- I don't recall seeing a longbow anywhere in the TV series or movie. Can anyone clarify this? --Pentasyllabic 02:17, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

I'm not familiar with weaponry exactly, but I certainlly recall seeing her wielding a bow-like weapon in the climatic battle of Serenity. --Bacteria 11:30, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

It's mentioned in the audio commentary that Inara wielded a longbow during the final fight in the movie Serenity, but it did not play well in test screenings. The bow was digitally replaced with a sophisticated bolt-throwing weapon, but in some long shots just before the fight you can see the original bow Dallan007

You can't actually see the longbow in the scene you're thinking of; you can see a black longbowish shape some people thought was a glitch, but was where the longbow was digitally erased (it's a very brief glimpse). Also, you can see the longbow sheathed in a velvet bag in a deleted scene between her and Mal just as they're headed for Reaver space as she removes it from her trunk. - dharmabum 00:17, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Trivia - Actress Rebecca Gayheart - citation needed

citation is on the series DVD in the "Here's How It Was: The Making of Firefly" featurette

Also - in the audio commentary for the episode on the DVDs. ;) Runa27 00:52, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Y'all may be interested in this...

Companion (Firefly) was created the other day. :) Some of you may have an interest in it, seeing as I'm sure some of the information from each article could be incorperated in the other. Runa27 00:52, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
