COLIN FARRELL - COLIN FARRELL LOVES HIS MUM

Smoldering Irish actor COLIN FARRELL's mum has been one of the biggest influences in his life.

The 27-year-old PHONE BOOTH star believes his mum RITA gave him the best piece of advice he has ever heard.

Devoted Colin, who is expecting a baby with model and former girlfriend KIM BORDENAVE, explains, "My mum taught me great manners. And she always told me that you can do whatever you want in life as long as you don't hurt anyone and as long as you're happy."

The DAREDEVIL star, who lives around the corner from his mother in Ireland, adds, "My mum's great, I adore her. It makes me feel really good to be able to pamper her now. When I finish an acting job I just jump on a plane to Ireland. Friends and family are everything to me."
