Brenda Fricker, the Oscar-winning actress who was well-known for her role as the Pigeon Lady in “Home Alone 2,” has died. She was 81.
The wrong Home Alone 2 actor has died
So sad she was funny playing the mom in So I Married An Axe Murderer.
Wrong Home Alone 2 actor!!!
Dammit, wrong Home Alone 2 Actor.
wrong octogenarian from home alone 2 died
HEAD, pour one out for a leegend! www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPrA...
Not her most famous role but to me, with huge fondness, she will always be Charlie’s mum in So I Married An Axe Murderer
She was Mrs Piper Doon.
well, shit. always memorable when she showed up in something. what a pisser of a week
Y’all are going to have to be more careful about your manifestations because it looks like all the universe heard was “octogenarian from the cast of Home Alone 2” and I mean what are the chances
Never moved from the Liberties in Dublin. When someone asked her why she stayed there, she said that a bloke had come to her front door the other day trying to sell a horse.
Fair enough, seems a little reductive to be remembered as 'pigeon lady', but it really was a brilliant role - a homeless character treated with compassion, not a punchline, and depicted as a good person with bad luck, worthy of love and friendship. RIP.
Uh, she was MAY MACKENZIE in So I Married an Axe Murderer. She was brilliant.
Rip my goat, Pigeon lady was chill

I hope all her bird friends welcomed her to the other side. RIP, Brenda.

Someone’s finally seen off Piers Morgan

Brenda Fricker on the British media and Irish celebrities. RIP Queen
Commentary years ago on Barry McGuigan in a boxing match along the lines of: "the British boxer is going to take this, the British Boxer is going to take this.....oh no the Irishman is down."
My Da pointed that out to me years ago when England and Scotland were both in the World Cup. The press kept talking about the the English team and the Scottish team, but when the English were eliminated and Scotland was still a contender - Scotland became "the British team" t'was ever thus
No. Put her back and try again.
Ah, shite. RIP to my inspiration as an Irish person in NYC.
Late-80s Ireland was quite exciting in some ways because it felt like we were becoming a real international presence. U2, Euro 87, and Brenda Fricker winning an Oscar. A legend.
If you haven't see it, check out "Brides of Christ" - a drama about Australian nuns in the 1960s. Fricker is one of the main characters and it is one of the best explorations of religion you will ever watch.
Oscar-winning Irish actress Brenda Fricker, best known for her roles in My Left Foot and Home Alone 2: Lost In New York, has died aged 81, her agent said
What a legend she was.
An amazing actress! May she rest in peace.
One of the great Irish artists of our time. May she rest in peace.
Ugh, devastating. Rest in Peace, diva 💖
We just watched her in a scene stealing role in A Time to Kill. RIP, Brenda Fricker, a true talent!
Sorry to hear that Brenda Fricker has died 🎬 I wrote this review of her film ‘The Swallow’ last year (for @headstuff.bsky.social): “an imagined memoir, rippling with emotion even as it unfolds quietly, as though in meditation.” #RIP headstuff.org/entertainmen...
RIP Brenda Fricker I loved her in So I Married an Axe Murderer.
no mention of her as the memorable mother in so i married an axe murderer, may mackenzie 😭 may she be joyfully reading the weekly world news somewhere in the stars
Home Alone 2 is an annual watch at Christmas in our household. RIP
RIP Brenda Fricker. May you rest in peace surrounded by Juice Tigers and Turtle Doves.
Kevin should have given her his hotel room…
Wow, you've turned into a right sexy wee bastard. Do you know that?
But not haggis, because she hates them...
Love the Juice Tigers and Turtle Doves, but let's be real, she's probably just hanging with the rest of the Dublin gang from Home Alone 2
"You've got a pickle in your ass"
