Others About Moira
DB Sweeney on Moira
“Moira broke her leg … in the scene in the bar, she has her leg in a cast and she’s being steered around in a camera dolly and she out dances me! So, I was out danced by a girl with a broken leg! She was very disappointed …But Sharon Carz … was Moira’s double and she looks so much like her so they were able to use her for a great deal of the film.”

“Moira Kelly and I got along great. Moira Kelly is a great girl. We’re both from Long Island. We both had great chemistry. She reminded me of the girls whose hair I used to pull on the bus. A great talent underutilized. I look forward to seeing her on West Wing.”

“A Kiss With Moira”
“It is one of the singular pleasures in life–like the sip of a cold beer in a
softball game, like slipping under a comforter after a long day, or a spoonful of a perfect tiramisu.” — D.B. Sweeney
Robert Downey, Jr on Moira
Mr. Attenborough cast Ms. Kelly in “Chaplin” without auditioning her or even screening her work. He and the film’s star, Robert Downey Jr., wax rhapsodic about watching film of the actress’s first scene. “Richard and I literally fell out of our chairs,” says Mr. Downey. “It was like watching Elizabeth Taylor’s screen test.”
Brendan Fraser about Moira:
“A delight!! Moira is generous A and has a huge heart and is very warm Joe Pesci knows where to get the best Italian food on the planet. Everyone was coming out of the kitchen to pay homage to him.”
David Kantar on Moira
“Working with Moira was a blessing. She is a wonderful person. She gave a hundred and ten thousand percent to her role and to the production [Henry Hill]. This raised everyone else’s performance. It was a wonder to watch let alone be a part of. People have commented that this is her best performance to date. I have to agree. She is awesome.”
Mark Schwahn
“she is a good person and a fantastic actor”
“What I love about it is Moira Kelly and Thomas Ian Griffith, who plays Larry, they had such a great energy between them, the genuinely liked each other, they got along. They would have so much fun before the camera rolled and after the camera cut, and you can tell, they’re a little smitten by each other in the scene. They do a great job”.

“It’s really great to have an actress like Moira Kelly because you can throw anything at her and she always makes it incredibly interesting and incredibly watchable. I would include every scene that I have of her so the fans can just watch an actor, sort of in their prime, doing great work…”
Joe Davola, executive producer of ‘OTH’

Paul Johansson

“I first met Moira Kelly when she was doing a movie with one of my best friends, Robert Downey Jr. [...] She is the most professional actress we have and we just all love working with her.”
Sophia Bush
“We all love her”
Kieren Hutchison
“Moira’s awesome. Such a good actress and a really nice person too. She was very welcoming when I arrived, I had dinner with her and her husband very early on and met their two beautiful children. My wife has always had a copy of The Cutting Edge starring Moira and DB Sweeney, so she was sure to tell her that when they met. I respect a lot of the things she’s done in her career such as Chaplin and The West Wing, so I learn a lot from her.”
