| Gabriel Bryne with Ambassador Michael Collins |
Actor Gabriel Byrne did just that at a party in his honor at the residence of Ambassador Michael and Marie Collins to launch “Imagine Ireland: A year of Irish arts in America 2011.”
“It’s a complimentary description,” he explained. “It’s harmless and don’t know why anyone would be offended.” What he doesn’t like being called is dark and brooding. “In Ireland,“ he said in a previous interview, “brooding is a term we use for hens. A brooding hen is supposed to lay eggs. Every time somebody says ‘He’s dark and brooding,’ I think: ‘He’s about to lay an egg.’”
