"Waking Hours"
LIFE- Sunday Independent 31st Oct 2010
" Your nerves might get to you, but you have to stay calm. Doing an audition is a technique in itself. Usually they are looking for something specific, so all you can do is be yourself and do your best. You're there for a reason, so just go for it. One of the hardest parts of being an actor is not knowing whether you've got the part. But you cant do anything about that."
"There will be times when you are going to be out of work or just auditioning. You might get a little job or big job, but the most important thing is that you've got to be realistic about it. I'm not going to sit at home waiting for the phone to ring. You have to make your own luck as they say"

"Why You Should Know About.... Amy Kirwan"
LIFE- Sunday Independent 14th Feb 2010
"It wasn't an easy part, says Julia Molony, but Amy Kirwan managed to bring warmth and vulnerability to her role as a spolied, selfish mother in EAMON, garnering an IFTA nomination for her efforts."
"She's been nominated for an IFTA for her role in breakout indie hit EAMON. The debut feature from writer-director Margaret Corkery has been touring the festivals to great acclaim for almost two years, and even took home the Independent Camera Award at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival."
"Her first professional gig was a feature film with Mackenzie Crook, best known for his role in "The Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy. Amy studied drama in Royal Welsh College of Musica and Drama and hit the ground running after graduating, scoring both a film and a TV role in quick succession.
