'Good to be home': Farrell

His next big shindig may be the 2008 Oscar Ceremony in Hollywood but for the moment Irish screen heartthrob Colin Farrell is just glad to be enjoying being home for the Irish Film Festival.

And his mother will be on his arm when he takes his seat at the star-studded event in the US next weekend, but right now the Dubliner is lending his support to the 2008 Jameson Dublin International Film Festival which boasts a number of Irish movie firsts over the coming week.
