Teenage Dreams: Sarah Bolger on her surprising religious side - The Independent
Excerpt:
Bolger is open and natural to talk to. She says "pardon me" quite a lot, and it is endearing. She is 19-going-on-40 some moments, and just a teenager the next moment: when she is asking for a Pepsi at the bar and talking about her dog and saying how much she loves music. Her favourite band is The Smiths. Her favourite Smiths' song is There Is A Light That Never Goes Out. "And if a 10-ton truck kills the both of us,/To die by your side,/Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine," she sings.
"I love the romanticism of it," she explains. "I am a huge, huge fan of Morrissey. He has to be cool."
