Carrie Fisher: obituary of a Princess and a rebel – MIRROR ONLINE

Carrie Fisher’s first big appearance was a projection. From the lens of the droid R2D2 was thrown in as a hologram in the home of Luke Skywalker. Immediately, the bluish shimmering figure began to ask for a certain Obi-Wan Kenobi desperately for help. Like the young Skywalker, the movie-going public in 1977, did not know, as the first “Star Wars”movie came out in theaters, who should be Obi-Wan Kenobi. And like the young Skywalker, the cinema audience then asked: “Who are you? She’s beautiful.”

that Carrie Fisher wrote as Princess Leia in movie history is wrong, because she writes it still. To your need to measure for 40 years, all heroines figures of the cinema, and you will need to in the future as well, because it is not in their multifaceted richness.

As of the entire “Star Wars”-tell the cosmos was assembled by your figure is half-myth, half-out of the Zeitgeist. She was half Princess, half-rebel, half-sweet, half-half figure of identification for girls, half of the dream wife for a young trigger-happy,.

If another actress would have done this balancing act so masterly, such as Fisher, is unlikely. You just did it, and she did it with a Twinkle in the eye, and also allowed a different agreement with your figure: Take this story of magically gifted knight not so serious, let’s just have fun with everything that is to come.

What came, was the biggest success story, who knows the cinema: in the Meantime, the third Generation grows up to Fans with their very own movie of the trilogy about the bright and the dark side of the force. As the Central Princess Leia is for the Franchise, is also not read, that it could itself differently, as merely variations of it to bring in the following Prequels, Sequels and Stand Alone films.

If Princess Amidala from the episodes I to III (played by Natalie Portman), Rey from the show that was chock-VII (Daisy Ridley), or more recently, Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) from “Rogue One”: you get more from your joke, Jyn braids all the parts with Leia your rebellious spirit and your hair color, Rey has a bit of a little more of your energy and Amidala tendency to idiosyncratic Hair.

Only the Sex Appeal of Leia and nothing has come close: The shackled, but continued to be combative, legislative, and Princess in the Golden metal Bikini from Episode VI is the only erotic Moment, the “Star Wars” has ever indulged in. Was Leia snails before by the strict folds of her white dress, and as ionic column financial statements-shaped Braid on Greek mythical figure has been trimmed, it was as the prisoner of Jabba the Hutt, the erotic icon and the fact neither of their subsequent liberation, the Happy ending in tree crowns was surrounded by cute fur balls to change anything.

Young, gifted, smart and beautiful: After the end of “The return of the Jedi,” you might have thought that “Star Wars” is only the first of many film by Fisher consequences would be. To clear your display arts differed from those of their comrades-in-arms Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill. Who had the more spectacular Sidekicks in the Form of Yoda and Chewbacca, but they were relieved of the task to have more than two facial expressions.

Long history of drug addiction

during the filming of “Star Wars” divided the fates of the three main protagonists, such as road crossings: Ford had in the meantime turned only the Science-Fiction classic “Blade Runner”, but with “Indiana Jones” for the next successful film series at the Start. Mark Hamill found after a few unsuccessful appearances in TV productions as a voice-over to some success and a model of life, which enabled him to of his work life, his famous blue eyes.

Carrie Fisher had in the eighties, no longer of use. She refused the role of Sarah Connor in “Terminator”, after the women dominated in the cinema with the “heavy makeup”, and the “high hair”, leading no Rebellion, but out of unrequited love austickten and rabbits drowned.

in 1987, she wrote, finally in a role that you should play the next few years: to fight a Version of your self, a daughter of a famous actress who is looking for a long time with drugs. “Postcards from the Edge” was the name of the semi-autobiographical book, published in Fisher and in the seeking of their cocaine and their relationship to her mother, Debbie Reynolds told. The screenplay adaptation for Mike Nichols’ film version of “Postcards from the Edge” (German title: “greetings from Hollywood”) written by Fisher himself, Meryl Streep and Shirley MacLaine played the mother-daughter Team.

from Now on, the stand, Carrie Fisher twice for offside in the film industry, because they could never match the success of her role as Princess Leia, on the other, because they talk very openly about this failure and also could laugh.

, the age and the body satisfied

As arranged, well Fisher with your life beyond Hollywood, you could see finally, when you are on a promotional Tour for “Star Wars: The awakening of the Power” went. With grey hair and dark glasses, in unglamouröser knit goods and sometimes with a dog at your side, you showed up on the red carpets around the world – not as someone who can draw on all the professionals in Hollywood, to young people, hair color, taut facial features and flattering Designer-clothing to obtain. But as someone of his age and his body is satisfied.

It is at least as beautiful and important role is played, the Carrie Fisher at the end of their career and, unfortunately, her life: In her recent appearances and Interviews, she showed just as much passion as the young Princess in the fight against to rigid images of women.

it is Significant that during the lifetime that her last film appearance, you will once again be seen in the upcoming “Star Wars”Film, Episode VIII, as the Leia – as well as her first big a projection. In “Rogue One”, the Film that tells the history of Episode IV and is currently running in cinemas, is Fisher see again, thanks to digital magic for a few seconds as a young Leia, and she speaks a single word: “hope.”

You might think that your mission in Life is summed up in this scene: to be forever young and to donate for always hope. But to appreciate Carrie Fisher’s life, is to keep it as fictional and as a real heroine, as a young Princess and old Rebellin in memory.
