‘Bright Lights’ Documentary

 
 

In light of the unexpected deaths of both Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, HBO Documentary Films presented this intimate portrait of Hollywood royalty in all its eccentricity.

Carrie Fisher and her mother, Debbie Reynolds, live in the same Beverly Hills compound. The 83-year-old grand dame still has a Las Vegas act, but performing is taking its toll. Carrie's response is both hilarious and heart-rending.

Featuring vintage family films that bring iconic old-world Hollywood to life, as well as extensive verite footage, the film is directed by Alexis Bloom and Fisher Stevens. (TV14)
