Barry has said:
Heroin came into Dublin, and it caught every family. My mother was one of the unlucky ones. She got caught on it, then she passed away… [He and his brother were subsequently raised by their grandmother] She’s a tough one… I’ll come home off a film set where I’m getting pampered, and I’ll get a slap in the head if I don’t make my bed. That’s what I love about her.
He should be held up as an example to the numerous American posters here who think only people of Asian descent can have “Asian” eyes.
It’s pronounced Barry Cohen, of course.
