- Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill guest -- separately -- on Late Night.
Carrie appears May 30, 1983, to plug "Return [or 'Revenge'] of the Jedi" while Mark shows up on June 20 to discuss his role as Mozart in the Broadway play "Amadeus."
Then a challenging "Star Wars" trivia quiz, with the winner, "Susan Boroday" (LN Assistant to the Producer Sandy Gillis) accepting her prize at the show's end.

She slipped away to fast, what a talent, what a beautiful and honest human being, she will be missed for all time. Rest in peace.
Mark Hamill has not changed one bit. His body has gotten older, but his personality is very much the same, and I like that a lot.
The WORLD is a shower
Mark sucks. Bipolar sucks.
@@andrewfelker4793 wtf he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder? plus mark doesn’t suck
@@rememberthatyoumustdie No, man. I was horribly diagnosed after my annulable (Henry VIII) legal spouse wife lied by repeatedly misrepresenting and distorting numerous facts and subjective truths.
And Carrie did?! She was ALWAYS our princess.
Seems like Mark has always been kind to the fans. What an amazing and kind person he is, I’m glad to see that fame never really changed him.
Even when he hated last jedi, he still hoped people liked it, he’s a true fan and the best joker out there.
I love seeing Carrie go from being so soft-spoken to yelling lines in character from SW. That's awesome.
Man, she was stunning. I'm impressed as well with how seamlessly she went into demonstrating how to act to nothing, normal conversational tone, full out shouty acting, and back, so easily. I miss her.
I'm old enough go have seen ROTJ in the theater in 1983.
I was in the line at the theater with my friends to see it for the first time. The people who were in the showing before mine came out when the movie ended and walked right by my friends and me. We asked them what happens in the movie, and one of them said, "Chewbacca dies".
We were shocked to hear that, and spent the whole movie waiting for Chewie to die. We were both relieved and disappointed when he didn't.
I was 5 when Star wars was in the cinema, I queued up with my mum watched the film n rejoined the queue to see it again, the queue was 200/300mts from the doors, all together I seen SW over 300 times at the cinema, part of my childhood was riding the crest of the wave that SW was and it lasting to this very day .
Milkman4279 Good story. I remember being there as well... 7 yrs old.
I call BS on all you. I was 27 and don't remember a friggin' thing !
Those are good people
i saw rotj opening weekend, stood on a long line, rained all day, nyc. there were 3 dudes cosplaying darth and 2 troopers. when luke took vader's mask off someone yelled "hey thats not james earl jones!" and everyone lol'ed. greatest movie experience.
Mark is truly one of the most humble actors out there. Even if you see him in interviews nowadays. He's still a very sweet and kind person.
Yup!
not lately
..been watching a couple of mark hamil interviews, one at the Oxford Union and the other called 92nd street Y.. for me i think he has replaced tom hanks as number one lovely grounded guy.. and he talks so well 🙂 x
RIP Carrie Fisher!! You will always be in our hearts and memories! May God and the Force be with you always!!
Nick Hydier She is one with the force and force is one with her.Peace and Love
Adib RBehroozi Amen, so very true!
"Lather up with Leia and you'll feel like a princess yourself" LOL she was so cute and funny!
I’m so glad she used that line in her one woman show.
I know her voice changed a lot over the years, but in this "era" of her life, she had such a calming, relaxing voice. Kind of raspy, but there was something very tranquil about it. I don't know. May she rest in peace.
gives me those jessica rabbit, kathleen turner feels

Wasteland Wasted r/whoosh
Wasteland Wasted, yeah.. you should honestly apologize to JGee. Especially because your post was so pretentiously condescending. If you plan to keep making such posts, at least do your research first.
There’s something about the sensibilities about actors in the 80’s that was waaay more down to earth than today.
The corporate PR machine is so much more in control now. A freewheeling, relaxed conversation between Carrie and Letterman about a movie as massive as Star Wars would be am impossibility these days, particularly with Disney at the helm. Everything is stage-managed to within an inch of its life today.
I came of age in the early 80’s so I’m biased, but a lot of things were better then.
cmon this was very much a studio machine movie Carrie just lived around hollywood her entire life, she was already well used to the Hollywood machine and exuded confidence
R.I.P to our beautiful princess. We all miss you. May the force be with you forever and always. We all love you.
40 years later i realise why i was in love with princess Leia. She was incredibly beautiful.
she was just so full of energy and wit. It's intoxicating to listen and watch her. Gone too soon.
She may be gone, . . . but she'll never be forgotten.
No ones ever really gone (trailer reference)
TheOicyu812 Spartans never die.... wait. Wrong series.
TheOicyu812 And she wore a t shirt that said” forgotten but not gone” !
Carrie Fisher and David Letterman are two of my favorite people in entertainment, to see them talking to each other is precious to me.
She was so beautiful.....
+The Carter85 and she still is!
Jimin's high note in House Of Cards Not any more.
She’s got legs...
Before all the cocaine.
Jimin's high note in House Of Cards um if you like bones.
Carrie and Mark converse so well in interviews. They have so many dimensions - humor, wit, humility, versatility, diverse talent,, relatable, and attractive. To me, their talent exceeded Harrison Fords; too bad they were so underated and underappreciated. (lol... I have the complete set of those Burger King collectors glasses.)
+AugustHawk Truth! Mark and Carrie were so underrated! Hoping they both have some sort of Renaissance in character roles!
organicskating Well said.... a renaissance for both Mark and Carrie and most definitely Luke and Leia. What an awesome story it would be to see twin rise against twin! WOW! lol I really hope they aren't just written out to make way for the new and younger characters.
+AugustHawk Me too....I think both of them are major box office draws! Writing them off would be death to the franchise!
+AugustHawk you sound like you watched so many interviews you forgot to watch the movies.
It was obvious they have a lot of range too just as much as ford.... hollywood is just discriminative pretty much towards actors *they think will garner more seats when clearly it's always about the characters, not the face. plus mark was still pretty good looking or just as good looking as ford back then,
and carrie was obviously beautiful n hot so there was no excuse. these actors always deserved better.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait just one damn minute. Are you telling me that late talk shows used to actually let guests talk genuinely and freely instead of trying to pull off scripted bits the entire "interview"???
Thats mainly Fallon and Corden because you know terrible hosts that arent funny need to do something to survive
Watch Norton.
Yes, that is correct Sir. This should be training for the pin heads on current late night tv...
This is Letterman, so that is a real host
He was so good and genuine in the early days and so endearingly geeky
She has always doubted her body, doubted her beauty, as evidenced in all her self-deprecating statements across the years. My God in heaven......if she had any idea.....Carrie....you have been eternally branded onto the heart and soul, the adoration and desire of generations of men around the *entire* world. And it's not ONLY for beauty, but for the courage and will your character embodied. Not since Marilyn Monroe have so many hearts burned with passion and praise toward a woman as toward you. Even to *this day* you are praised by countless millions of men whom would rather spend a day alongside you than any other starlet in hollywood. I guarantee this beyond all doubt.
R Cruz He does, so fuck you!
Because of Star Wars.Otherwise she'd just be Debbie Reynolds daughter
John Martin So what’s your point? That’s true of any celebrity. Because of such and such movie or TV show they’re still someone’s son or daughter.
1:43 "having a child..." hahaha you will, princess... You. Will.
+Sara Calvo
An evil child muwhahaha lol
+Sara Calvo She even got the hair right!
+Sara Calvo lol
yes, i know
I loved the complex character of Kylo Ren.
Amazing to think she was 24 or 25 here and me being only 12 and having the hugest crush on her. Carrie literally was Gorgeous! The voice, the smile. Hard to imagine just how long ago this was in a city far far away. RIP Carrie you were one of the original strong Female leads that was also able to do that while keeping your femininity, one of the greats!
Mark Hamill is great and makes me laugh when he refers to Star Wars as something wasn't taken seriously, it was only the biggest movie in the World and Ever at the time. Little did he know he'd become not only a legend but one of (I said one of, not THE) the most recognized characters in film history.
I love when Mark says "...It'll all be collectors item and forgotten in 10 years..." hahaha 24 years later! Star Wars LIVES 4ever!
As Yoda once said, " Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the force." I want to honor you by celebrating your life but I can't stop the tears. You will be missed.
Megan Bonanno You are quoting a puppet
Megan Bonanno No,man was not supposed to die.
How comforting
Do you feel the same about your own family members
Lovely interview. Mark and Carrie just seemed such nice people to have around.
I miss old school Dave. His show was like a public access experiment with real movie stars.
I remember watching Letteman’s show in the morning if I had stayed home from school that day. Was only 11 or 12 then.
1:40 Wow she predicted what Kylo Ren would look like. LOL!
Or they based him on this interview.
80's were the BEST! MISS THEM
me too, and i was born in 1991. because i hate this age!
The 80s was such a different decade.it really stands out as time passes as a special time
@@michaelfrazia4569 It was a special time, the 80s. Those were my teenage years and whilst there were times that were very difficult, the positive aspects of the 80s really stand out, from the music to movies and the fact we had no social media meant relationships tended to be more authentic in some respects.
@@Adara007 ...the colors, candy, and fashions were amazing ..the music , movies, and television were so good...and as you said...relationships in the real world rather than online were the order of the day.....there isn't much I wouldnt give to go back.
@@michaelfrazia4569 I absolutely agree. I'd also like to go back and would, for a while, if I could time travel.
Rest In Peace Carrie
awwwww mark hamill is literally the sweetest guy ever he's so nice and polite yet funny and adorable
I agree completely
21:30 New trilogy lined up for 2011! He was pretty bloody close!
+thefallenone86 I was just thinking the same thing. Quite perceptive of Mark.
I think there was another interview where Luke said George Lucas told him that.
Yeah, this wasn't Mark guessing, this was Mark quoting George Lucas who had said 2011.
@Trey Stephens 2015 was close enough. Mark said "third trilogy"
It was 1999 or thereabouts....
Mark Hamil is one of the most honest and talented actors ever, SW was a bit of a poisoned cup for his career, Im so glad he is now seen for what he is. Also one of the funniest guests ever
She was such a beautiful soul
Wait...she used the word 'prequels' and talked about her and Han having a baby that has big hair. Whoa.
Well she was a skywalker after all.
Well Ben Solo aka Kylo Ren has long hair but not that long only on the shoulder
She sensed it in her training
They already had all 9 parts of the story mapped out before they filmed A New Hope
@Clark Kent a sad future. Expended universe was beter
She is just gorgeous here. And such a sharp talker and comedian.
@@jasonjrf A lot of celebrities take some kind of drugs before going on talk shows to either calm down or wake them up, depending on their state of mind and other factors
@@jasonjrf I was simply making a true statement. And yes I know she had a huge drug and alcohol problem
@@jasonjrf I'm not minimizing anything.....you however are deliberately trying to antagonize.....maybe it works on other people but not me I can't be arsed with your trivial attempts at goading me
@@jasonjrf You make a lot of assumptions. I know they do I've heard them say it. In other situations as well including auditions. But my well honed instincts already tell me that is the case. And no that statement does not minimize anything. A lot of people take all kinds of drugs celebrtires or not. Some can do so and not become addicted others not
@@jasonjrf As the person who made the original comment I can say 100% that was not my intention at all. If anything I was agreeing with you. For some reason you've interpreted it that way 🤷♂️
Return of the Sith and Revenge of the Jedi are my two personal favs
Random Roleplays 😂😂😂
Love how the actors aren't actually hyping the film, or claiming how much fun everyone is to work with. They tell it like it is. Mocking the process, the hutt language, etc
MISSED BY MILLIONS...
This video was uploaded on my birthday
back when main characters weren't perfect heroes from the start like in the disney films... they feel like actual people with flaws instead of perfect superheroes
Back in the day when Han Solo could fire first...
Mark Hamill is such a sweet guy.
@3:10 "I started doing these films since I was 19, so it's one of my specialties except for a type of chicken that I can make." LOL even Dave laughed out so much at her deadpan joke.
So long and thank you for the laughter and entertainment, Carrie.
I broke out laughing right along with him. I get her.
OOohhhh those LEGS!! Can't believe this interview was conducted 33 years ago.....!
How prophetic that this was a year ago to the day. Rest in Peace, Carrie 12.27.16.
Both Mark and Carrie come across as so charming and sincere.
I started watching this with no intention that I would finish it, but there it is. Great interviews.
Carrie was so beautiful, I had the biggest crush on her
Liked Her 2
She was so stunning, and clever.
It's like David Letterman never was young.
amazing to look back at her life... such a beautiful and inspirational woman... heartbroken to see her gone :'(
Mark Hamill is always a wealth of information. He never is boring or shy.
She was absolutely delightful.
I miss the 80s, popcorn movies and good interviews😢
When I was a little kid, I always thought Princess Leia was also a singer in my mom's favorite band, Fleetwood Mac. Lol.
@Nelson Robert Willis I thought Carrie Fisher was Stevie Nick's. I remember looking at the album art of Rumors and asking my mom why Princess Leia was in it.
Looking at pics now of them both in their prime, I think they could pass for sisters very easy.
Carrie Nicks, Stevie Fisher, same thing.
Breathtakingly gorgeous with an easy charm..... And my god, she was as sharp as they come, too.
A rare person.
Siempre fue hermosa, R.I.P Carrie. :(
Lots of people say Carrie Fisher is a Plain Jane, but I think the gentlemen here would agree that the real draw in her is the quiet, alluring mystery underneath that innocent ladylike facade. You want to know her secrets. How she can go from chill to Boss! mode at 3:23, along with the hidden intelligence, wit and charm. And oh, did I mention the bikini?
I never thought of her as a plain Jane at all. She was drop dead gorgeous back in the day. She had a lovely voice and has never lost her sense of humor.
Good freaking God----back in the day, Carrie Fisher was sexxxy as hell. Yeah, she may have that "girl next door" look----but *that* is exactly the reason as to why I find her *so* hot. No one pulled off that look like Carrie Fisher. To me, the girl next door look is the equivalent to how most men drool over the supermodel type (something I don't find attractive *at all* ). Christie Brinkley is the only exception. But, she kind of has the girl next door look going on, doesn't she? So, we're right back to where we started.
The 3:23 is amazing!
Thierry I had a major crush on her as teen. I loved her tough girl roles not just in Star Wars but the Blues Brothers too.
Ontologically Steve I’d take Carrie any day over Christine Brinkley. No diss to you or your choice. Just my opinion. I think Carrie’s strong girl attitude was very appealing for me, apart from her gorgeous looks.
Carrie Fisher: The Crush Awakens (Again) RIP M'Lady.
Holy shit! I remember this show with Carrie. I was 18 and was always sleepy as hell in school from staying up watching Letterman. Who could resist staying up for Carrie?
She seems like the coolest person to party with ever.
Yup and probably gave up the pussy easy after a few beers and lines of coke.
@@1977TA hey man i agree but have some fucking respect..
I've never seen an interview with Hammil before. Never knew he was so cerebral and articulate.
Carrie's eyes...
Carrie was so much FUN
Carrie Fisher seems to be one of the most intelligent actors.
DesertScorpionKSA Yes she is. Yet she didn't graduate high school.
Education != Intelligence
lol she was a college drop out u div. she WAS very intelligent tho.
In a recent interview with Mark Hamill, he jokingly said that she actually only wanted to “look like” she is intelligent. She said it herself.
She was.
These Lettermans that u put here are PRICELESS ! Thank u
Have you ever notice how the actors of the past were so humble. Nothing like today's group who are so stuck on themselves - vanity, oh vanity! These guys/gals were so down to earth and spoke so genuinely.
Sorry.........I think that's rank bullshit. the difference;is that today,the loud obnoxious actors,get a lot more press than they did back in the day[No TMZ,then]. there have always been;quiet,loud,and in between persons in the acting biz. In fact,many old Hollywood people,were renowned pathological narcissist's,as well. I'd not put Carrie in that category,i think she was a doll,as i'm sure you'd agree.
forgot how delightful she was. great smile and personality.
mark hamill is super honest. He doesn't go all political and just say what people want to hear all the time. He actually openly talked about not wanting to be type casted and stuff even back then.
I think it would be awesome if he got a role as the joker in a live action batman movie. i bet he'd be super good since he was the joker voice for all those years in the cartoons and is a good actor in general. I feel like he would have done just as good as jack nicholson and definitely better than jered leto.
Smart, charming yesterday and today. Thank you for the post
Irony at it's finest... he calls it Revenge of the Jedi accidentally (that was its original working title) and then she references talk of making the 3 prequels but that it probably won't happen. Incredible to look back to things like this.
ZOMG. I remember seeing this footage on TV before the movie came out. Back then, the effects-driven Hollywood blockbuster was still a rarity. Seeing these effects was mind-blowing, My friends and I were so friggin' excited for Return of the Jedi. And young Carrie Fisher... what a babe.
She was Beautiful, inside and out.
21:40 "George has spoken obliquely about a third trilogy that would start around 2011; to have a job lined up at the turn of the century, I can't really relate to it" = but I'll bet you can relate now, eh, Mark? :-)
Shows what a visionary George Lucas was. I feel so bad that he didn't want to continue with Star Wars, I feel so bad for everyone attacking him for years because of the prequels, which weren't that bad. Now what we're getting from Disney is garbage.
Clinton Leonard sometimes you need crap 💩 sequels to make you realize you atleast has something decent.
Amazing that he said 2011 for the third trilogy which actually began pre-production in 2013
Lawd Jebus She was unbelievable when she was younger ♥️🔥
I dated a Ukrainian girl in my hometown a few years ago.
She was in the US on a workers Visa for the summer.
She was a sweetheart.
When people who never saw her ask what she looked like , I tell them think of Carrie Fisher from around 1980 to 1990's.
Yekaterina was a dead ringer for Carrie at that time.
Funny thing is at the time, I never thought of them so closely resembling each other. Never occurred to me.
Miss her very much.
Carrie Fisher is terrific
RIP Our Beloved Princess! You will be missed.
God she was gorgeous ... just an attractive woman with some inexplicable quality that you can't put your finger on.
Matthew Shroba She was brilliant
Little did he know Star Wars would still be top rated in 2020? ❤️
She was so gorgeous! Hell even her old self before she died, was a beauty! RIP Carrie!
God, she's so charming , intelligent and warm...I really miss her.
RIP Carrie :(
Seems like Mark Hamill is the only one that actually LIKES Star Wars LoL
Until now. 😜
I could listen to her talk for hours. God, she embodies the quintessence (the force) of American women's charm.
I think Mark Hamel is highly intelligent with a photographic memory... You can see him pulling from his memory. Watch his eyes as her speaks.
Incredible!
That's called being geeked on cocaine. Losing train of thought.
@@kevinlawrence4812I have to agree. I've never seen him like that, and defensive with a lot of overt confidence and a touch of arrogance
"will there be another one?" he asked. Hahahahahaha yeah 32 years later
David Frigault yes but not with her
Alexander Grayson 16
She was so pretty and witty. Batshit crazy but crazy awesome too.
@Jeffery Amherst not sure if she was diagnosed this early but she did have an interview with stephen fry about having severe bipolar disorder. czcams.com/video/uj8hqXd7N_A/video.html&t=468
@Jeffery Amherst she for sure did a lot of drugs and alcohol
Honestly from my perspective, she was beautiful, cool, intelligent, real and carried a deep sorrow. I dunno what she went through but I can imagine. Maybe she was high but i don't think that should define her in those moments. And Mark is fucking smart too, and cool for real.
It was going to be called Revenge of the Jedi. I remember seeing ads and posters with that name. But then Lucas changed his mind.
Very true, George. I have an Elric magazine from 1982 with a feature on "Revenge of the Jedi," with some Ralph McQuarrie conceptual artwork. There are also some red herrings thrown in plot-wise, including talk of a character named Adoy, a sinister Yoda.. or something like that.
And of course, there is the red and black movie poster for "Revenge" out there somewhere..
It might have a been a too edgy name.
@@satanbrony9235 I remember Lucas explaining the reason for the name change at the time. He said that "revenge" is not something that a Jedi would seek.
Good God, Carrie was adorable.
Mr Punk to you 20.53 😂 . Love, Peace and Happiness to everyone.
She was smoking hot back in the day!
Bad teeth
amandeepv well she was an addict
Carrie had great teeth every picture I have seen of her lovely beautiful white teeth
They always say the prequels were bad bc they had no one to act with but Carries generation nailed it
Carrie is and was and always will be .......Wow. Love you Carrie X
Thanks CZcams algorithm im now getting out the 4 head VCR to watch ep 4 5 n 6
without the changes too
this was made exactly 1 year before she died.
R.I.P.
oh, wow!.. I see it now..

(The Force is strong with this uploader!)
This was in 1983..... she died December 2016 .... A bit more than a year ago ! Lol.
I think the comment was this vid was put up a year ago, but yes the recording was back in 1983.
that is what i meant. i apologies for not clarifying.
Jill Sandwich i
Return of the Jedi was an amazing movie.
It was by far the best Star Wars Movie.
Empire Strikes back was #2
Stars Wars #3
R.I.P. Princess
beautiful with a sense of humor, that is extremely rare
Mike pancetta daisy Ridley
Not really, but with a decent sense of humor definitely. Such a down to earth yet refined woman. Wow I missed out on the fanboy era of Princess Leia.
Carrie was so beautiful, insightful, and funny. Love is never past tense.
12:19 When Mark said his brother is still considered the success and laughed you know he was thinking "but im Luke Skywalker bitch"
3 very fine people at the time... Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Letterman. All 3 were so humble back then.
