Yes, I agree. However, I think she paid such a steep price. People should pay more attention to drug addicts, they are usually the gladiators of humanity.
in many ways, she was a non-celebrity thrust into the celebrity world but she never bought it. No wonder she relied on drugs to cope with that shallow world.
@@fortunasp5391 There are two types of A-list celebrities, one is by name recognition, and the other is by box office accomplishments. Ford only became famous after Star Wars and Indiana Jones happened, but everyone in Hollywood knew Carrie. She had name recognition thanks to her parents, and as she got older because of her own talent and outstanding work as a screenwriter. She had wits and humor to boot. As for Ford, it certainly took him a while to get recognition outside his collaborations with Lucas. Carrie was just always there.
@Kevin Prima oh please, get off your high horse, drug addiction is an illness, not a choice. Also, you'd be surprised about the kind of things people can do, even under the influence of drugs and no, it's not all negative.
@@malcolmdrake6137 Are you referring to me? 1. I'm a woman, not a him 2. I love Mark Hamill, 3. Have you seen him? He's incredibly enthusiastic. I could imagine that constant energy becoming annoying to someone like Sir Alec Guinness to the point that he bribed him to give him space. Maybe she was joking, but the sentiment of the joke rings true to me. Anyway, have a good day.
I agree. Mark Hamill was very young in 1977... and very American. Sir Alec was 40 years ahead of Mark in age, 60 years ahead in life experience... and very old world English. So I can quite imagine Sir Alec getting very weary of Mark bouncing off the walls, and finding a way to take the wind out of Mark's sails, so he could smoke his pipe in peace and quiet.
Tim Smith Pity that the “old world English” are all but gone. As another fellow has observed, “London isn’t English anymore”. At less than 45% of the population in their own capital city, I suppose not.
This video helped me to appreciate that not only was Carrie Fisher a movie icon for me as a boy, she was a remarkable, strong, and fiercely intelligent woman who's sense of humor was matched only by her brutal and often self effacing honesty. A very special woman we lost too soon.

It just hit me that for years and years, all I ever heard people mutter anecdotally about Carrie was that she was "having trouble with drugs". Nothing could be further from the truth: she was having trouble with her mental health, and self-medicating. It's a profound statement on our cultural aversion to discussing mental health that that was always the line.
IF you want to go that route, that can be said for every single person that consumes alcohol, or any drug including one of the worst- SUGAR. Its well known she was a cokehead. Call it whatever you want. Her biggest problem was her parents, she was doomed from the start.
@spartanx169x 169of300 my point was merely that we should be more willing to identify, admit to, and discuss mental health problems, as they are usually the root issue in secondary behavioural issues. Pleased you mentioned sugar though, I'm currently getting very frustrated with how unable people are to identify it as a drug despite its effects and its addictiveness.
When amy winehouse died, the front page headline on the Boston herald was "they tried to make her go to rehab, but she said 'no, no, no' ". Things are a little better now, at least.
Think of how she broke the mold for fictional "princesses". It took Disney decades to figure out that girls want to see a princess with agency, strength, and independence, fully capable of taking charge of their own rescue. How important was that for girls to see!
And yet they completely butchered the one female character that was supposed to be the culmination of that by literally making her a vessel for a male character 🙃
The older I get the more I appreciate who this woman was. An absolute legend and incredible woman. To have the feminine sensuality, the vulnerability, the fierceness, intelligence, and to be an actual funny woman.
Fun fact: She was latter a script doctor for many television shows, and that started on The Star Wars Movies. She streamlined and improved dialogue, and along with Georges Wife had a significant impact on the First Movie at least.
Well... there's a way you could take "losing your virginity *three times* " - but it's just filthy, and I'm not gonna go there. But Carrie gets it, and she's laughing her ass off right about now....
She was one of the most naturally funny people out there. Honest, irreverent, self-effacing, sharp, unapologetic. And just brilliant. Plus full of heart. RIP.
We've been robbed of them 3 having a reunion in the new movies. Absolute horseshit! It's an insult to the fans. I refuse to accept the last 3 "movies" happened.
Here I am telling myself, what are you doing? Tears rolling down both my cheeks. I never knew here and yet I felt like I had known her my entire life. ❤️
Cause she was a wee 5-2" and knew she could get away with it. Honestly she could insult my heritage to my very face and I'd be impossible to take it seriously, only because we "KNOW" her and her lack of real vindictiveness and it would be funny. AS FUCK
To honest that and a couple more things had the water works on. She was the best. I've loved her for about 33 years. Will love her 33 more if I make it that long.
I named my daughter Carrie, after Carrie Fisher. She was just a massive bright light in my growing up as a teenager, & absolutely one of the most beautiful women on the planet. What a pity she had trouble with drinking and drugs, a very bright light went out the day that she died. RIP Carrie
still not over her passing, her books and interviews helped so much growing up she truly changed my life, I'll forever be thankful to this utter legend
"Because I'm loyal, because I'm alert, because I'm fierce..." Because you're missed!!! The world needs Carrie Fisher!! It's not the same without her in it... it's a sadder place without Carrie among us.
After Carrie died, a little girl dressed as Jyn Erso and went to a con with her Dad and delivered the Death Star plans to every Princess Leia there that they could find. I tear up just thinking of it.
That ending really got to me. I'm not a big star wars fan nor am I very familiar with Carrie Fisher's work but she seemed to have been an amazing, inspiring woman. Life is beautiful and we should make the most of it while we still can.
Pat Aherne yeah ok. why?? Did he show respect for his family,including his daughter, when he did what he did? Just because someone has a child doesn’t mean they are a parent. Respect is earned not just given. If he wanted to stray he should have gotten a divorce and did it after or kept it in his pants. When you cheat on your spouse you not only hurt and disrespect them, you hurt and disrespect your children with them. The trust was gone and that needs to be earned back. People make mistakes but that’s not an excuse.
Pat Aherne I mean... it kind of was her business. It greatly impacted her life. She even said that she didn’t hate Elizabeth Taylor (saying that people seemed to think she should hate Liz more than she actually did). And pray tell, what kind of moral obligation did she have to respect her shitty dad?
Pat Aherne You are way over the line and don't know what you are talking about when it comes to Eddie and Carrie. This is a guy who did cocaine with his daughter so lose the moral high ground. And just a side note here.. Eddie became very sick in his final days. Guess who was by his side, hiring nurses, overseeing his care and footing the bill for it? It would be wrong to confuse Carrie the writer and entertainer with the Carrie who behind the scenes had a forgiving heart and worked at building a relationship with her father. And in the end it was Carrie taking care of Eddie although sadly, as a child, he had never taken care of her.
Man this is moving As a kid born in the 70’s who grew up with Star Wars seeing them in the theater & getting the action figures many of which I still have, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia was one of the first crushes I had growing up along with probably every other boy in my generation. Like many of the greats, they were taken from us too soon. She was actual Hollywood royalty but she was still so humble, self-deprecating & real which made you love her even more.
I love that she embraced what made her a star. That bit of Hamill talking about his bio for a play, you could tell he wasn't completely proud of his space based movies, at least at that time. He clearly thought it made him look less than a stage actor. She knew she played a strong woman, and that the films were absolutely integral to the growth of storytelling by film. She wasn't afraid to love the films. She was genuine. Seems hard to find in Hollywood.
I fell in love with her when i was 7 lol 1977. What a beautiful smile and life in her eyes. Its hard to believe she had a severe personal battle with herself and sadly the alcohol and substance abuse shows as she aged. Saying that always a strong character that said what she thought and incredible wit. She will always be my Princess. RIP Carrie x
If you ever have a chance to view one of her one woman show, watch it. No wonder that she saved many movie scripts. She was one of the best. The world was brighter when she was alive. Fortunately, she's on video, too. She was a genius ,truly entertaining and so intelligent. Thanks for putting this video together.
Carrie will always be around in spirit because she was absolutely magical in everything she did. Beautiful soul with no holding back. There will be no one like her EVER.
It sounded like he couldn't say her name at that moment. He paused and called her the other member of the trio. That moment when your deep emotions are rising up and you're a split second from cracking. It's so hard being human, love is so tough.
the way i see it, harrison kinda treats his acting work as a job you know. he never phoned his work, but cause it is like 9-18 for him he never excited about it, it's just a way to earn money. that's why on interviews he comes off so apathetic.
@@danzansandeev6033 I agree, I think this is really the first time I've seen him show a strong genuine emotion. you just couldn't help but love this woman...
I really didn't know how special she was as a person. Such great editing and everything else that makes a biography excellent. Thanks for letting me know who she truly was, I know that I certainly underestimated and undervalued her. Beautiful video!
Carrie was the best. Such charisma and wit... She was the rebel who the world needed to see in the limelight. We miss you Carrie. The world was a better place with you having been in it.
If there was one thing that killed the "new trilogy" for me was the fact the makers never got Luke, Leia and Han back together for any scene. THAT is what the true fans were waiting for and they took that away from us.
The whole point of TFA was that Luke was living out the rest of his life as a hermit and no one could find him. Then Han stupidly walks up to his son he hasn't seen in don't know how many decades. God I hated TFA and TLJ was even worse. TROS was almost palatable IMO. Remember ROTJ when Lando barely escaped the death star before it exploded, and he let out a scream of joy and Nein Numb was laughing. Those are the kind of moments the sequel trilogy was missing.
This is one of the best tributes I've ever seen for Carrie Fisher. She was definitely one of a kind. I especially love how at the very end, I was in tears, then the last few seconds there's one last laugh.
She was my princess growing up, my first crush. Later in ln life as I learned more about the woman herself and our shared diagnosis (bipolar) she became an inspiration and she still is. She died much too young and is sorely missed. Rest in peace Carrie Fisher. PS: On second thought, Im sure that wherever you are now, its become quite lively since your arrival, just as you livened up everyone around you in life.
I got the chance to write her a fan letter when I was a kid. She mailed me an autograph photo which I still have. I hope my hero worshipping letter in my clumsy child's handwriting brought a smile to her face. And now I have to stop reading the comments because they keep making me cry. I just have no words to express my sorrow because they wouldn't measure up to what a person she was.
I wrote her a letter too and did get a picture in return. When I met her years later I mentioned it and she asked what year. When I said 93/94 she said her mom took care of it then
Carrie was an old soul, you can clearly see that even while watching that footage of her singing at 13. What a remarkable woman, gone far too soon. SHE DESERVED A HAPPY ENDING, DAMMIT!!!
funny, that clip and her singing voice made me think of Jessica Harper in phantom of the paradise, where one of her song is called old souls. Beautiful song too. But no direct relation to Carrie Fisher.
She deserved more than the sequels that’s for sure. Makes the tragedy much worse, even if Disney see sense and redo the trilogy movies Carrie Fisher would not be alive to see her legacy complete. I’m glad I watched this, after seeing ep 7 and 8 a growing dislike built for me. This reminds me who she really was.
Good piece, nice editing. Carrie Fisher always seemed like a very genuine person who never took herself too seriously. She is one of the reasons I break out into laughter when some assert there are no strong female role models, and men don't like strong independent women. Generations of males have been tripping over themselves, enamored with her from first sight, and generations of females have tried to emulate her.
Don't ask women to be like her... Most of them are not close to be anything comparable. Nowadays women are in permanent trouble with her identity and completely manipulated by mass media, where they are just showed of as bad male clones because they want that to destroy our societies.
@@jasondashney Well both Star Wars and Alien are more 80s movies than 70s movies in a sense, they basically kicked off "80s action extravaganza" movies at the end of the 70s. Most of the kids who grew up on those Carrie and Sigourney grew up in the 80s pop culture.
Agreed. Tons of tough independent and very sexy women for decades. Thing is, the weaker softer woman is something some women want to be. Why shoehorn anyone? Why try to make all women tough and rough? Respect women, all women. Respect them for who they are and don't try to change them.
I continue to replay Carrie Fishers interviews. She is beautiful,funny ,witty,strong, honest etc... One of a kind.. Her tribute to George Lucas blew me away. The applause demonstrated how much the audience appreciated. I wish I had met or seen her live show. Once in a lifetime Human being.
I love how in-love-with the Leia character she was. Even the oldest interviews of her plugging Star Wars, she was perfectly delighted at the idea of being cast as Leia (or some other princess) til the end of time.
The funniest line I heard from Carrie regarding Liz (paraphrased), is, “when Liz lost her husband, my father rushed to her side- and made his way around to her front.”! One heck of a whit. RIP Princess.
These 3 contributed to Hollywood so much even outside of the Star Wars circles that they should have a lifetime achievement award named after them. Carrie especially, she had more impact on the entertainment business worldwide than any woman before or after.
Only Carrie would say such brave thing, " Take your broke heart and make it into art." By the way I did not know she could sing!!! What an amazing voice.
That's what I respected most about Carrie, and even Mark. That they have willfully accepted and embraced the Trilogy that shaped so much of their lives. Unlike Harrison Ford, who pretty much avoided it, to the point where during talk shows and interviews he would have the show deliberately not ask any questions about 'Star Wars' without his approval before hand.
@@deanladue3151 Everyone has a different personality. For all of his presence, Harrison is very much an introvert, the opposite of Mark and Carrie...but they fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
@@rikk319 the movie made Ford a star, but i think that he didn't want his career to be judged on the trilogy alone. I thought that it was ironic in a sense that 'Star Wars' was supposed to launch the careers of Hamill and Fisher, but instead it was Ford who became a superstar when 'Raiders Of The Lost Ark' came out four years later.
I saw an interview with Carrie where she said that she and Simon used to joke about it to the point that she called the song "Bridge Over Debbie's Daughter." So funny! (I'm still gutted at her death.)
My heart sunk the moment I saw Harrison and Mark on the walk of fame missing Carrie, knowing she JUST got hers posthumously represented by Billie 😭 She was truly one of a kind 💙
It's 100 percent true. Perhaps the truest thing anybody in Hollywood has ever said about the "genre." It's complete BS and the death of current entertainment in America as we know it.
@@Station9.75 And while you're recording your cat, it might turn to your phone to see what you're doing there. In that moment, it's not really real anymore, because even the cat behaves differently because the camera is there.
“It’s like a Möbius striptease” is one of the cleverest things I’ve ever heard anybody say. And... that montage of the various readings of her holographic recording to obi-wan actually brought tears to my eyes. Honest to goodness tears.
I can recommend her book 'Postcards from the Edge' - full of similar brilliantly acidic comments, and a description of the insanity of chasing a high that I have never seen bettered - and I know that territory.
She was a queen, a legend and an icon. She the reason I sought help for my mental health and remains the biggest reason that I'm still here. I wish she was too so I could tell her how much she impacted my life
I'm also really thankful for her interview on PBS Fresh Air in February 4, 2004. I remember thinking "I have that". Two months later exactly I started having a major manic episode that finally ended in early June when I was admitted to psychiatric hospital after losing 30% of my body weight. Unfortunately, the experience with the law, the courts and forced confinement in a mental ward left me with a case of PTSD that wasn't diagnosed until much later in 2008 when I joined an international study of bipolar using MRI of the brain at UNC hospital. I also learned I have an IQ of 139. My symptoms finally got under control after losing literally everything and somehow landing in Indonesia. I attribute my cure to the year round 12 hours of daytime and 12 hours of nighttime that somehow got my rapid cycling under control and not living in a police state also helped a lot with my PTSD. God bless you and keep you Carrie Fisher. You didn't come in time to save me but at least I had a warning.
When I got clean and started getting help with being bipolar her books and interviews really helped me keep going and keep trying each time I fell down. I hope she knows the millions of people she helped with our struggles
The world lost the Greatest when Carrie Fisher passed away. Anything she wanted to do, she did and she did it epically. Does anyone else tear up when she says "Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope."
Seeing Debbie getting emotional over Carrie's singing voice just shows you how much she loved her kids. When Carrie passed away, Debbie died from a broken heart the following day.
Debbie's love of Carrie was...complicated. Debbie was manipulative, controlling, domineering, and as Carrie said grooming her into her "next act". Sure it was love, but also very damaging, and very flawed.
When I was a little boy (born 89) after the trilogy had come out I watched them when I was 6 and my god for the longest time I had the biggest crush on her. I couldn't imagine how bad it would have been if I grew up during the releases and was a teen boy I would have never dated because no one would be better than her. She will always be my number one princess. You can tell she was one of those people you would love to be around. What an iconic trio. Mark, Harrison, Carrie. The real 3 musketeers.
Totally unique woman, they certainly broke the mold after her casting... one simply must surrender to her gregarious and brutally honest nature: something the world lacks today.
Which Carrie is your favorite? Mine is 90’s writer glasses-pushed-up-on-forehead-Nora-Ephron Carrie.
ALL.

I gotta go with the metal bikini Carrie, from Return of the Jedi.

This video helped me to appreciate that not only was Carrie Fisher a movie icon for me as a boy, she was a remarkable, strong, and fiercely intelligent woman who's sense of humor was matched only by her brutal and often self effacing honesty. A very special woman we lost too soon.

I love that whenever Mark Hamill tells a story about Carrie he has to get a hearty laugh out of the way first. It happens every time.
He loved her like a sister... it is just like they were..
Aww... he really woved her
They were like siblings
It just hit me that for years and years, all I ever heard people mutter anecdotally about Carrie was that she was "having trouble with drugs". Nothing could be further from the truth: she was having trouble with her mental health, and self-medicating. It's a profound statement on our cultural aversion to discussing mental health that that was always the line.
Very good point.
IF you want to go that route, that can be said for every single person that consumes alcohol, or any drug including one of the worst- SUGAR. Its well known she was a cokehead. Call it whatever you want. Her biggest problem was her parents, she was doomed from the start.
@spartanx169x 169of300 my point was merely that we should be more willing to identify, admit to, and discuss mental health problems, as they are usually the root issue in secondary behavioural issues. Pleased you mentioned sugar though, I'm currently getting very frustrated with how unable people are to identify it as a drug despite its effects and its addictiveness.

Well maybe not all are sleeping but definitely silent night... I think it was a roasting innuendo about furtive sexual advances.
An absolute icon. She looked so young and innocent in Star Wars but was still sassy and she was even sassier IRL! RIP Carrie
She was young, but she was never naive. She made Shampoo at around the same time, and that role was anything but innocent.

Pat Aherne yeah ok. why?? Did he show respect for his family,including his daughter, when he did what he did? Just because someone has a child doesn’t mean they are a parent. Respect is earned not just given. If he wanted to stray he should have gotten a divorce and did it after or kept it in his pants. When you cheat on your spouse you not only hurt and disrespect them, you hurt and disrespect your children with them. The trust was gone and that needs to be earned back. People make mistakes but that’s not an excuse.
Pat Aherne I mean... it kind of was her business. It greatly impacted her life. She even said that she didn’t hate Elizabeth Taylor (saying that people seemed to think she should hate Liz more than she actually did).
And pray tell, what kind of moral obligation did she have to respect her shitty dad?
It must be tough on you. Did you guys hang out a lot?
Pat Aherne You are way over the line and don't know what you are talking about when it comes to Eddie and Carrie. This is a guy who did cocaine with his daughter so lose the moral high ground. And just a side note here.. Eddie became very sick in his final days. Guess who was by his side, hiring nurses, overseeing his care and footing the bill for it? It would be wrong to confuse Carrie the writer and entertainer with the Carrie who behind the scenes had a forgiving heart and worked at building a relationship with her father. And in the end it was Carrie taking care of Eddie although sadly, as a child, he had never taken care of her.
You guys seem to have known her so well. This is some profound moving stuff.
Man this is moving As a kid born in the 70’s who grew up with Star Wars seeing them in the theater & getting the action figures many of which I still have, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia was one of the first crushes I had growing up along with probably every other boy in my generation. Like many of the greats, they were taken from us too soon. She was actual Hollywood royalty but she was still so humble, self-deprecating & real which made you love her even more.
I love that she embraced what made her a star. That bit of Hamill talking about his bio for a play, you could tell he wasn't completely proud of his space based movies, at least at that time. He clearly thought it made him look less than a stage actor. She knew she played a strong woman, and that the films were absolutely integral to the growth of storytelling by film. She wasn't afraid to love the films. She was genuine. Seems hard to find in Hollywood.
I fell in love with her when i was 7 lol 1977. What a beautiful smile and life in her eyes. Its hard to believe she had a severe personal battle with herself and sadly the alcohol and substance abuse shows as she aged. Saying that always a strong character that said what she thought and incredible wit.
She will always be my Princess. RIP Carrie x

Seriously? Where do you cast the future, unborn children of the main characters in those movies?
For me, the new trilogy was killed by a ridiculous script a disjointed story that made no sense.
I believe they would have shared a scene together, had Carrie lived. :(
The whole point of TFA was that Luke was living out the rest of his life as a hermit and no one could find him. Then Han stupidly walks up to his son he hasn't seen in don't know how many decades. God I hated TFA and TLJ was even worse. TROS was almost palatable IMO. Remember ROTJ when Lando barely escaped the death star before it exploded, and he let out a scream of joy and Nein Numb was laughing. Those are the kind of moments the sequel trilogy was missing.
from the way it ended there was definitely time for them to meet, they just never did which was a shame
“To me she’s royalty...”
I wonder if Max Von Sydow got to interact with any of them during production?
And will always be
@@WilliamHaywardPainter I wonder if he is interacting with Carrie, Peter M, Peter C, Alec, and Kenny right now...
Carrie is so incredibly awesome, that Debbie couldn't live one more day without her. And nobody knew her better than Debbie.
This is one of the best tributes I've ever seen for Carrie Fisher. She was definitely one of a kind. I especially love how at the very end, I was in tears, then the last few seconds there's one last laugh.
“I have much nicer furniture.” I felt that.
She was much ahead of her time
Now this is a strong female role model.
@@SmithCommaBenjamin we're all drug addicts bud.
@SmithCommaBenjamin she had a struggle, like we all do. your view is short sighted.
@@movement2contact wtf are you talking about lmao
@@katebutler4296 She had opinions. Woman having any kind of opinions of her own is manly, apparently.
@@ryanashbaugh4974 Yeah like the most fascinating thing about Billie Holliday was the heroin.
She was my princess growing up, my first crush. Later in ln life as I learned more about the woman herself and our shared diagnosis (bipolar) she became an inspiration and she still is. She died much too young and is sorely missed. Rest in peace Carrie Fisher. PS: On second thought, Im sure that wherever you are now, its become quite lively since your arrival, just as you livened up everyone around you in life.
Their passing was the most heartbreakingly beautiful thing.
I got the chance to write her a fan letter when I was a kid. She mailed me an autograph photo which I still have. I hope my hero worshipping letter in my clumsy child's handwriting brought a smile to her face. And now I have to stop reading the comments because they keep making me cry. I just have no words to express my sorrow because they wouldn't measure up to what a person she was.
I feel you
I wrote her a letter too and did get a picture in return. When I met her years later I mentioned it and she asked what year. When I said 93/94 she said her mom took care of it then
Carrie was an old soul, you can clearly see that even while watching that footage of her singing at 13.
What a remarkable woman, gone far too soon.
SHE DESERVED A HAPPY ENDING, DAMMIT!!!
funny, that clip and her singing voice made me think of Jessica Harper in phantom of the paradise, where one of her song is called old souls. Beautiful song too. But no direct relation to Carrie Fisher.
@@maximeteppe7627 Interesting comment. My brain does the same thing. I'm always seeing connections everywhere. You must have a high IQ.
Saying someone is an old soul is basically saying
"Jesus you've lost your serotonin levels at age 12"
@@libertyprime619 And she did.
She deserved more than the sequels that’s for sure.
Makes the tragedy much worse, even if Disney see sense and redo the trilogy movies Carrie Fisher would not be alive to see her legacy complete.
I’m glad I watched this, after seeing ep 7 and 8 a growing dislike built for me. This reminds me who she really was.
Good piece, nice editing. Carrie Fisher always seemed like a very genuine person who never took herself too seriously. She is one of the reasons I break out into laughter when some assert there are no strong female role models, and men don't like strong independent women. Generations of males have been tripping over themselves, enamored with her from first sight, and generations of females have tried to emulate her.
Don't ask women to be like her... Most of them are not close to be anything comparable. Nowadays women are in permanent trouble with her identity and completely manipulated by mass media, where they are just showed of as bad male clones because they want that to destroy our societies.
Apparently Carrie Fisher and Sigourney Weaver weren't a thing in the 1970's.
@@jasondashney Well both Star Wars and Alien are more 80s movies than 70s movies in a sense, they basically kicked off "80s action extravaganza" movies at the end of the 70s. Most of the kids who grew up on those Carrie and Sigourney grew up in the 80s pop culture.
And Sarah Connor.
Agreed. Tons of tough independent and very sexy women for decades. Thing is, the weaker softer woman is something some women want to be. Why shoehorn anyone? Why try to make all women tough and rough? Respect women, all women. Respect them for who they are and don't try to change them.
I continue to replay Carrie Fishers interviews. She is beautiful,funny ,witty,strong, honest etc... One of a kind..
Her tribute to George Lucas blew me away. The applause demonstrated how much the audience appreciated.
I wish I had met or seen her live show. Once in a lifetime Human being.
I love how in-love-with the Leia character she was. Even the oldest interviews of her plugging Star Wars, she was perfectly delighted at the idea of being cast as Leia (or some other princess) til the end of time.
The funniest line I heard from Carrie regarding Liz (paraphrased), is, “when Liz lost her husband, my father rushed to her side- and made his way around to her front.”! One heck of a whit. RIP Princess.
These 3 contributed to Hollywood so much even outside of the Star Wars circles that they should have a lifetime achievement award named after them.
Carrie especially, she had more impact on the entertainment business worldwide than any woman before or after.
Only Carrie would say such brave thing, " Take your broke heart and make it into art." By the way I did not know she could sing!!! What an amazing voice.
"oh yeah you have any"
"I'm princess leia, your luke skywalker...get used to it and get over yourself"
...god I love her.
That's what I respected most about Carrie, and even Mark. That they have willfully accepted and embraced the Trilogy that shaped so much of their lives. Unlike Harrison Ford, who pretty much avoided it, to the point where during talk shows and interviews he would have the show deliberately not ask any questions about 'Star Wars' without his approval before hand.
@@deanladue3151 Everyone has a different personality. For all of his presence, Harrison is very much an introvert, the opposite of Mark and Carrie...but they fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
@@rikk319 the movie made Ford a star, but i think that he didn't want his career to be judged on the trilogy alone. I thought that it was ironic in a sense that 'Star Wars' was supposed to launch the careers of Hamill and Fisher, but instead it was Ford who became a superstar when 'Raiders Of The Lost Ark' came out four years later.
At 13 she’s singing a song written by her future husband.
I saw an interview with Carrie where she said that she and Simon used to joke about it to the point that she called the song "Bridge Over Debbie's Daughter." So funny! (I'm still gutted at her death.)
I know right?! Does life get any more ironic than that?!
@@thedys70 i don't think you do.
@@unclenelvis Ummm.... I don't?
@@thedys70 no. You don't.
What a unique and worthwhile woman. She turned her vulnerabilities into strength like few people do. I miss her.
My heart sunk the moment I saw Harrison and Mark on the walk of fame missing Carrie, knowing she JUST got hers posthumously represented by Billie 😭 She was truly one of a kind 💙
Love what she says about "reality TV". "If you can film it, its not real."
It's 100 percent true. Perhaps the truest thing anybody in Hollywood has ever said about the "genre." It's complete BS and the death of current entertainment in America as we know it.
It’s not though is it? I can pull out my phone and record my cat.
@@Station9.75 And while you're recording your cat, it might turn to your phone to see what you're doing there. In that moment, it's not really real anymore, because even the cat behaves differently because the camera is there.
@@beatz04 So true, my cat does the same. Unless you are quick she'll deliberately ignore it and turn away.
“It’s like a Möbius striptease” is one of the cleverest things I’ve ever heard anybody say.
And... that montage of the various readings of her holographic recording to obi-wan actually brought tears to my eyes. Honest to goodness tears.
I can recommend her book 'Postcards from the Edge' - full of similar brilliantly acidic comments, and a description of the insanity of chasing a high that I have never seen bettered - and I know that territory.
Me too
.she's so good...she can deliver those iconic lines in a way only Carrie could..no woman in star wars compares to Carrie.
there's one (or maybe a couple) of videos of billie doing the monologue too bc Carrie taught it to her, watching it always makes me emotional
Superb!
Same.
“Because I am weak, and through that weakness I find my strength”
I’ve been saying this for years, it is so true, I’m glad somebody else gets it!
It's still hard to believe she isn't with us anymore. This was great to watch. R.I.P. Carrie Fisher
"Do you still miss drugs?"
"Oh, yeah. You have any?"
coneil72 lol pothead
Its sad cause that's what killed her in the end
@@Roxas77 I thought she died of a heart attack?
@@CarbonDioxide. the heart attack came from too many drugs in her body
@@Roxas77 Oh ok.
She was a queen, a legend and an icon. She the reason I sought help for my mental health and remains the biggest reason that I'm still here. I wish she was too so I could tell her how much she impacted my life
You can... Just think about her and tell her x
I'm also really thankful for her interview on PBS Fresh Air in February 4, 2004. I remember thinking "I have that".
Two months later exactly I started having a major manic episode that finally ended in early June when I was admitted to psychiatric hospital after losing 30% of my body weight. Unfortunately, the experience with the law, the courts and forced confinement in a mental ward left me with a case of PTSD that wasn't diagnosed until much later in 2008 when I joined an international study of bipolar using MRI of the brain at UNC hospital. I also learned I have an IQ of 139. My symptoms finally got under control after losing literally everything and somehow landing in Indonesia. I attribute my cure to the year round 12 hours of daytime and 12 hours of nighttime that somehow got my rapid cycling under control and not living in a police state also helped a lot with my PTSD. God bless you and keep you Carrie Fisher. You didn't come in time to save me but at least I had a warning.
When I got clean and started getting help with being bipolar her books and interviews really helped me keep going and keep trying each time I fell down. I hope she knows the millions of people she helped with our struggles
The world lost the Greatest when Carrie Fisher passed away. Anything she wanted to do, she did and she did it epically. Does anyone else tear up when she says "Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope."
This video made me cry. She was such an awesome person. I love her strengths! I want her back! Love you Carrie!
Funny, intelligent, beautiful, whip-smart and utterly without any self-imposed limits. She was a cool bean.
What you mean "bean"? She was the whole goddam vine!
@@toascranill5464 What do you mean "vine"? She was the whole goddam farm!
Seeing Debbie getting emotional over Carrie's singing voice just shows you how much she loved her kids. When Carrie passed away, Debbie died from a broken heart the following day.
Debbie's love of Carrie was...complicated. Debbie was manipulative, controlling, domineering, and as Carrie said grooming her into her "next act". Sure it was love, but also very damaging, and very flawed.
@@jaydouglas8845 - Yeah…. Debbie didn’t want to be upstaged.
To me it looked like she was so deeply jealous it made her cry. Explains their entire relationship.
What a wonderful tribute to Carrie! Such a loss to the world that she is gone. 😥❤
When I was a little boy (born 89) after the trilogy had come out I watched them when I was 6 and my god for the longest time I had the biggest crush on her. I couldn't imagine how bad it would have been if I grew up during the releases and was a teen boy I would have never dated because no one would be better than her. She will always be my number one princess. You can tell she was one of those people you would love to be around. What an iconic trio. Mark, Harrison, Carrie. The real 3 musketeers.
"You ask your mother." - Carrie Fisher
I miss her so much.
She roasted that female interviewer asking abt her weight, hahahaha. GOT EM.
Totally unique woman, they certainly broke the mold after her casting... one simply must surrender to her gregarious and brutally honest nature: something the world lacks today.
