Energetic O’Hara ready to take centre stage again
NO one could ever accuse Maureen O’Hara of resting on her laurels. At 90, the star of some of the greatest Hollywood movies of the 20th century should by rights be enjoying her retirement. Instead she is lending her time and energy to the foundation named in her honour, promoting the classic film festival in Glengarriff this weekend.
The foundation is also at work on a far more ambitious project, the creation of an €8.6 million legacy centre, film academy and auditorium in the west Cork town that O’Hara insists will be running in 2013.
