Bright Lights plucks [Fisher's] star and that of her mother down from distant heights and lets us gently hold them for a time, reassuring us that their brilliance and humanity was real, their mutual endearment unbreakable. Full Review

Ms. Fisher is brainy and salty and hilarious, and she's frank and eloquent in describing being bipolar. Full Review

A gentle, minor tribute to one of Hollywood's greatest loves that proves how lucky we were to have them, and how much luckier they were to have each other. Full Review

Rating: A -- The film transcends utility. It's a sober yet gracious cautionary tale about fame and fandom and a powerful portrait of love in action. Full Review

No matter how unsinkable you are, no matter how hard you try to use The Force, it's impossible to look at that image of mother and daughter, fiercely by each other's sides, and do anything other than cry. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

An intimate portrait of two of Hollywood's most fascinating personalities, Bright Lights: Starring Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds has become both a requiem and celebration of the two movie icons who unexpectedly died one day apart in December 2016. Shot mainly inside the Beverly Hills compound where both Fisher and Reynolds lived (their two houses were connected by one walkway), 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.
