comments: Irish cutie Hugh O'Conor first caught our attention in the excellent but little seen The Young Poisoner's Handbook, a quirky tale of a young man obsessed with poisoning. He's kept working since then, but has yet to hit it "big". We wonder why, he's talented and works hard at his craft. We hope to see a lot more of this boy. Catch him next in Hotel Splendide, out this year.
