When it comes to her family’s dirty laundry-of which there are piles and piles lying around, hopelessly soiled-she’s not what you’d call the soul of discretion: Other than that, though, she’s really great: she’s smart as a whip, wickedly funny and she swears like a teamster, whatever that is.Īll the same, I definitely wouldn’t want her for a daughter, or even a distant cousin. And she’s a recovering alcoholic/drug addict with bipolar disorder and a lavishly messed-up family. But now that I’ve read Wishful Drinking, I kind of want Carrie Fisher for my girlfriend. When the original Star Wars trilogy came out, I was too young to have nurtured any grotty, pubescent fantasies about Princess Leia (though I guess by the time of Return of the Jedi, I was old enough to be confusedly excited by those harem scenes with Jabba the Hutt).
