The promoters of a film festival which celebrates Richard Harris in his native Limerick, has accused the city’s cultural establishment of snubbing the event after the city council gave it just €200.

Inspired by the Richard Harris Film Festival in Limerick, UL’s Glucksman Library has decided to put on an exhibition of Richard Harris photographs from the collection of Fr. John Leonard.

The Limerick pub where Russell Crowe flew thousands of miles to toast his late friend Richard Harris is to commemorate the great Limerick actor.
