Bright Lights: Starring Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds

Two Film Icons Share Memories of Their Lives in the Spotlight

This feature documentary takes a candid look at the interconnected lives of two movie icons, who sadly and unexpectedly died one day apart this past December: Star Wars actress/author Carrie Fisher and her mother, Singin' in the Rain star Debbie Reynolds.

Shot mainly inside the Beverly Hills compound where both Fisher and Reynolds lived, the film captures the unique chemistry and eccentricity that bound these two generations of Hollywood royalty. Given unusual access to each woman's home and life, directors Alexis Bloom and Fisher Stevens captured the quicksilver wit and intelligence shared by both women as they orbited around each other, living separate lives but kept close by the gravitational pull of love and family.
