ER star helps launch Dublin festival
“I’m really proud of this year’s festival,” said director Gráinne Humphreys. “It’s managed to bring the best of contemporary cinema to Dublin.”
Maura Tierney — best known for her role as Abby in ER and starring in the Gate Theatre’s production of God of Carnage — helped unveil an impressive roster of films. She spoke of “the unique experience” that film festivals now offer in an age when a great many films are being watched on computer screens.
