NEIL Jordan gave Jonathan Rhys Meyers his first big break in the movie 'Michael Collins'.
And yesterday, the film director turned up to offer the 30-year-old actor a comforting shoulder at the funeral of his mother, Geri Meyers.
The actor's eyes brimmed with tears as friends, neighbours and fellow actors like Colin Farrell and Maria Doyle-Kennedy joined in a round of applause for the mother-of-five at the end of the Requiem Mass, at St Joseph's Church in Glanmire, Co Cork. Mrs Meyers was laid to rest at St Catherine's Cemetery, Kilcully.
