Fionnula Flanagan
Highest Rated: 99% Song of the Sea (2014)
Lowest Rated: Not Available
Birthday: Dec 10, 1941
Birthplace: Dublin, Ireland
Before moving to the USA from her native Ireland, the intense, attractive Fionnula Flanagan made her feature debut as Gerty McDowell in Joseph Strick's fascinating but uneven filming of James Joyce's "Ulysses" (1967). On Broadway, she won critical acclaim and a Tony nomination as Molly Bloom in "Ulysses in Nighttown" (1974), co-starring Zero Mostel and staged by Burgess Meredith. Flanagan has also toured in her one-person show, "James Joyce's Women," in which she played among others, Nora Barnacle Joyce, Sylvia Beach, Harriet Shaw Weaver, and Molly Bloom. The play was adapted as a feature film in 1984, produced by Flanagan and her husband, Garrett O'Connor.
