TODAY, WE ARE REMEMBERING  on her birthday the lovely Carrie Fisher  a woman, 
who was never dull, touched all she met, was a mountain of energy and 
fun and yet sadly, like many of us, carried another life, that sometimes
 worked against her, making even the sunniest of days, dark and 
exhausting. Many here of course will know her connection to Peter 
Cushing, through the movie, STAR WARS 
WITH CUSHING
 playing the evil TARKIN and Carrie the vulnerable PRINCESS LEIA Tarkin,
 together they played a key scene, with Peter cranking up his 
performance, as the cruel and most Machiavellian of characters in the 
Star Wars universe. Carrie later shared how difficult it had been for 
her to find the motivation, to hate Peter's Tarkin. She too,like many 
before her, had been charmed and moved, by his kindness and manner on 
set, it was quite a task to actually say those lines. Even though she 
left us a wonderful library of work on screen and on the page, it's a 
weird feeling, knowing, she isn't around to cheer us up and make us 
laugh in her interviews. As a teen she was my first crush, she dazzled 
and shone very brightly . . on screen and in life, a real Princess! 😊 We remember Carrie today . ..
