      There’s some lovely interviews with Brenda on YouTube. She always seemed to down to earth, warm and kind.

      RIP

      That’s very sad. She was interviewed recently on Tommy Tiernan’s show and still had a glint in her eye.

      An absolute legend. Lived up off Thomas Street back in the day and used to shop in Frawleys when my mam worked there. Incredibly friendly but also eccentric in a nice way. One of the good ones

      A joy to see on screen. She brought such a unique warmth. RIP. 🌷

      Ah God. Remember her in so many films that really stuck in my mind growing up and as a young adult. A real talent.

      Rest in peace to an amazing kind and talented woman who brought pride to this nation

      That’s a shame. She was lovely. And a powerhouse of an actress. She should have got more work than she did after the Oscar

      Ach. The personification of an Irish Mammy.

      She was always so lovely in anything she was in, and seemed a genuine, good person. RIP.

      Loved her. Not an ounce of notions. Used her Oscar as a doorstop for the bathroom.

      Great career and probably the most warm “mammy” smile in showbiz

      Unexpected pool hustler as well on the set of My Left Foot.

      What a legend. She’ll be sadly missed. May she rest in peace.

      If Piers Morgan also died, well that would raise more suspicions. On a serious note, she was brilliant in My Left Foot and of course Home Alone 2 and few others. She’d a real talent for those roles. RIP.

      Some great memories watching Brenda in Home Alone 2 as a child.

      Rest in peace. ❤️

      I had no idea she was in Home Alone 2 until u/its_brew posted the picture. Man, it’ll be sad to see her in the movie now, but, just a guess, maybe she would want us to smile. All the best to her loved ones.

      That’s sad. She always came across as a nice genuine person. R.I.P.

    32. Separate-Practice550 on

      Ah no. Poor Brenda. She had a tough, amazing life.

      Brilliant actor one of the greats of Irish acting

      Listened to her with Brendan O’Connor last year and she was so brilliantly mad. Mad as a bag of cats but lovely all the same. She was telling Brendan she wished she was dead, so in a way I’m happy she’s got her wish.

      Was in Central Park recently and made sure to stop by the Gapstow Bridge where the Pigeon Lady meets Kevin.

      Her interview with Tommy Tiernan a few years ago was the best I’ve seen. She opened up on her struggles with depression and her reclusive lifestyle. Well worth a watch.

      RIP Brenda.
