...dialogue - its cadence and Celtic slang borrowed from his Irish background - can make even the most banal comment sound like a punch line. Audiences first fell for McDonagh's gritty, witty brand of theater in 1996, when his first play, The Beauty Queen of Leenane - about the love-hate relationship between a spinster and her domineering mother - won the then 26-year-old a handful of awards and the first of many Tony nominations.

"Sarkozy's relationship with Brown is as warm and positive as it was with Blair in terms of foreign policy and European issues, but it lacks the personal friendship."
