Even when they have nothing, the Irish emit a kind of happiness, a joy.

Now I have begun to get interested in films and I just hope that people start becoming interested in me to do more films.

A lot of Irish people perform. They perform in drawing rooms. They sing songs and they play piano.

I loathe bad theater and most theatre is very bad because its repetitious, unexciting and, dangerously, it is sometimes praised for those things.

I once saw my mother playing Mary Magdalene in a parish event. But she had to put the role aside in order to go and front the choir who were singing at the same occasion. She left the stage halfway through the Crucifixion.

Even when they have nothing, the Irish emit a kind of happiness, a joy.

I take the theater seriously in that I loathe it, I'm bored by it.
