i read parts of this book and its pretty funny.  kinda remarkable how she can laugh at herself and all her mishaps cuz she was really on a destructive path for so many years.

its too bad she did not have much of an acting career after OT.  but she is a talented storyteller and should write more scripts.  wonder if her daughter will become an actress?

its funny that for a while, many actors did not want to appear in blockbuster franchises because they did not want to be typecast like fisher, hamill and to some extent christopher reeve for superman.  but nowadays,  top notch actors want to take the opportunity to star in these kinds of movies.  What has changed?  are franchise movies better produced or have movie audiences changed so that an actor won't be completely identified with just one role?
