It’s safe to say that actor James Martin is looking forward to his upcoming trip to Hollywood. The star of AN IRISH GOODBYE, the short film that has already won a Bafta and is now gunning for an Oscar, has an extra reason to celebrate. Sunday’s ceremony falls on his birthday. Martin, who has also starred in BBC One film UPs and DOWNs and ITV’s MARCELLA, plays Lorcan in Ross White and Tom Berkeley’s film about two estranged brothers thrown together again after their mother’s untimely death.
