What’s everyone’s obsession with saying she looks old? I think she looks brilliant for her age. And not to mention how much of a lovely person she is..
I found her charming. Aside from the looking older thing, she has this charm of elegance and maturity around her. People fall in love with this aura. I find myself searching for this values in people. So it is not weird JM married her. He is lucky. She is a real catch. Goooo Anne Marie!!!
well said! people are often too quick to dismiss someone if they're not conventionally young and beautiful. most people i know say to me how they can't believe james mcavoy would go for someone as old and homely as she is but i can totally see why. she may not be a supermodel but she comes off very engaging and interesting. she has that certain "je ne sais quoi" (and even a bit of "jolie laide") that really sets her apart, IMHO. in fact, i actually adore JM even more for noticing/appreciating/falling in love with someone like that.
I don't think her attractiveness needs justifying. The woman's not a Brazilian ass model but she's fucking adorable. Not like she's Susan Boyle or something. Just watched her as John Lennon's mother in "Nowhere Boy" and think I fell in love with her harder than John did.(Blatant incestuous undertones, you have to see the film to know.)
God I love her!!!! Am the only one who cried when she came back for the last episode??? Even though she was there for a very small period of time, I feel like she "made" the show
She was in the Magdalene sisters and the Magdalene laundries. Two leading roles in two different films portraying the same story. Amazing actress, full of grace , elegance and yet still very much down to earth.
Funny she says the set had stayed the same when it was completely rebuilt before season 5 in an industrial estate so they didn’t have to use the real houses
