52 MINUTE DOCUMENTARY PROFILING NIALL TÓIBÍN
|
In
his long and celebrated career, Niall Tóibín has
been known as a raconteur, satirist, pioneer of stand-up comedy and an
actor of stage and screen.
Fierce, controversial & hilarious - he has entertained and
challenged us for the best part of half-a-century. Though now in his
late 70s he has lost none of the “fire in the
belly” which won him many friends and one or two enemies.
In this candid documentary he talks honestly about the highs and lows
of his life and work from his definitive portrayal of Brendan Behan and
his career as a dramatic actor to the controversially explosive satire
of his television appearances and his phenomenally successful one-man
shows.
Screened
on the closing afternoon of the
Corona Cork Film Festival, 19th October 2008
Broadcast on TG4, Christmas Day, December 2008
