“My daughter, she tells me when she grows up she wants to be a singer or a comic. I said ‘Well, baby, if you wanna be a comic, you gotta be a writer. But don’t worry, you’ve got tons of material: Your mother is a manic depressive drug addict. Your father’s gay. Your grandmother tap dances and your grandfather eats hearing aids.’ And my daughter laughs and laughs and laughs and I said ‘Baby, the fact that you know that’s funny is gonna save your whole life.’”
- Carrie Fisher
Haha. That's a pretty cool quote.
Was Carrie Fisher always funny? Or did she become funny only after she became ugly?

Carrie Fisher wrote this movie, based on her best-selling autobiographical book.
1. Meryl Streep's singing voice. She sounded really good, like Shania Twain good.
What happened? Because she sounds like trash in "Ricki and the Flash."
2. Dennis Quaid used to be attractive.
3. The film looks funny. Is it good? Is it acclaimed? Famous? Or at least a cult classic?
I don't really want to waste time watching old films that are non-acclaimed or remembered.
