Career

She portrayed Ariel, the mischievous daughter of poor Irish immigrants who lived in New York City in the 1980s.

She received the Iowa Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actress. She has been nominated for Chicago Film Critics Association Awards for Best Young Actress, Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards for Best Young Actress, Gold Derby Film Awards for Best Young Actress, and Other Honors for Actress in a Support Role, Drama, and others. Laura Weinert wrote that "Emma Bolger brings a startling freshness and a lack of self-consciousness" and was also nominated for the Outstanding Achievement by a Cast in a Motion Picture. We are constantly amazed by her appearance: she is never cloying, never too cute for the film's own good."
She appeared in the 2005 film Heidi, based on a classic children's tale, alongside Max Von Sydow as Grandfather and Diana Rigg as Grandma. Bolger played Heidi, a young orphanage in the Swiss Alps who was rejected by a cruel aunt and sent from the city to live with her grandfather. Bolger went to an audition in London and learned a few days later that she had been chosen to be in the film. During the film's shooting, she was joined by her mother, Muriel, and a Welsh tutor. In the Common Sense Media's review, Andrea Beach said, "Emma Bolger is interacting, and her appearance is commendable for someone so young." Stella Papamichael's BBC review called her results "serious."
She appeared in Colin Farrell's crime film Intermission.
Bolger, although her sister and co-star Sarah had a fruitful acting career, gave up acting in favour of academic pursuits.
