BIOGRAPHY OF CARRIE FISHER

Carrie Fisher was born in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, on October 21, 1956. Her father is the singer
Eddie Fisher, while his mother is the famous actress Debbie Reynolds: it is therefore natural that she too soon has the desire to become an artist. His acting debut – on stage boards – dates back to 1973, in a Broadway staging of the musical. Irene. Soon after, the young actress attended the Central School of Speech and Drama in London for eighteen months and made her debut in front of the camera in the comedy with Warren Beatty, Julie Christie is Goldie Hawn
Shampoo.

In 1977 he arrives for the Fisher the golden opportunity, the opportunity to leave your mark in the history of science fiction cinema with a character destined to remain unforgettable: the Princess Leia Organa of Star Wars
. Carrie immediately accepts the proposal of George Lucas and in no time at all he becomes a star: of cinema and merchandising. We find it again in 1981 The Empire strikes again and, in 83, ne Return of the Jedi
. For the actress, however, the end of the 70s is not an easy time: the bipolar disorder she suffers from, and which is diagnosed at the age of 24, leads her to become addicted to alcohol and drugs, and in 1980 the Fisher risks being fired on the spot during the processing of The
Blues Brothers, in which she plays the woman to whom Johh Belushi it broke my heart.

Always in the 80s Carrie Fisher work with another Belushi: Jim. The film is The man with the red shoe
, followed by Hannah and her sisters
of Woody Allen is Women and Amazons on the Moon. The latter comes out almost at the same time as the publication of
“Postcards from Hell”, semi-autobiographical novel in which Carrie tells about his bad drug experience. In ’90 the book becomes a film by Mike Nichols starring Meryl Streep.

The actress closes the decade by starring in Harry, this is Sally and in the 90s he rarely works, limiting himself to pure entertainment films such as Escapade with the dead is Austin Powers: the counterintelligence. The same goes for the 2000s, in which she prefers to link her name to big Hollywood productions, but covering small roles: we find her in
Scream 3, Heartbreakers – Family vice
, Charlie’s Angels – More than ever is The Women
(in which he finds Meg Ryan and has a juicier part). In this period, the Fisher alongside acting, an activity that he started practicing since the 1980s: that of editor of film scripts. Among the films for which she has been entrusted with the scripts, there are some very important ones: Hook – Captain Hook,
Lethal weapon 3, Sister Act,
Kate & Leopold and even Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones is Star Wars Episiodio III: Revenge of the Sith.

Finally, to remember the work in the theater: in 2009 Carrie
brings on stage “Wishful Drinking”, a show in which he retraces the years of his life, also talking about the difficult relationship with the character of Princess Leia.

Carrie Fisher, which in 2013 was part of the International Jury of the Venice Film Festival and in 2014 appeared in
Maps to the Stars, has had a rather eventful love life. She was married to Paul Simon and romantically linked to Dan Aykroyd. Some speak of a romantic relationship with her James Blunt, but she herself admitted that she was only a good friend to the English singer-songwriter.
In 2015, after 32 years, we find her in the role of Leia in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens
