RMeingast Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 News item I came across today about Oscar-winning actress Brenda Fricker: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brenda_Fricker Seems that she has fallen on hard times as this article by Jennifer Ruby from the "Daily Mail" explains: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2221812/Oscar-winner-Brenda-Fricker-admits-broke-lonely.html Very unfortunate situation and I hope things improve for her soon and in the future. Certainly are many other actors and actresses too who have struggled with financial and health issues in the past, and present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpompper Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 She just appeared in "Albert Nobbs" (2011). It was nice to see her again . . . I think the last film I saw her in was "My Left Foot." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonOfUniversalHorror Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Haven't seen My Left Foot, but I remember her well as the bird woman in Home Alone 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
