That was an excellent one.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

My parents and myself watched this after a few weeks when both women died. It is just so sad that Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds died a day of one another. Some people say its creepy but it seems like the way it was. Carrie didn't look good at all, she looked as if she was Debbie Reynold's mother since Debbie Reynolds still looks like she was in her late 50's than being in her 80's. The drugs really did make her look old and I'm not saying this to criticize her because shes a legend, however I have to admit, you do see the side effects. She did look beautiful from when she was Princess Leia to the late 90s. It didn't help when her parents divorced and her father ran off with Elizabeth Taylor. Even worse, he became a druggie and left his children to try out his weed for themselves when they were teenagers.At least Debbie Reynolds really tried her best to support her kids and the fact they became a success like her, its wonderful! I was shocked during the documentary that she badly bruised her face from a fall. Poor thing, it was awful to hear about that! I am quite sad writing down this review because both women were part of my childhood and I thank them for entertaining all generations over the years. RIP Princess Leia and Kathy Selden <3

Watching this and seeing the true Love between Debbie & her children is heartwarming. It also gives you a slight insight into the old and new Hollywood lifestyle. Not such an easy life.After seeing how much Carrie cared for her Mom, and worried about her declining health, I wonder if Carrie is actually the one who died of a broken heart. Those 2 were soul mates, and they left the word at almost the same time. I thought it was so well done, and such a tribute to 2 lovely lades.My heart goes out to Billie Lourd, who at age 24,lost her Mom & Grandmom, and Todd Fisher, who lost his Mom & his sister.Nothing will bring them back, but this film will be such a great memory for their family now, and for generations to come.

Bright Lights is an illuminating look inside the homes and lives of two legends. I love Carrie Fisher cooking a soufflé for her mother Debbie Reynolds and then walking out Carrie's backdoor across their shared backyard and into her Debbie's back door to share a meal with mom. They share more than that with us. It's like sitting on their living room couch and going thru the family album, warts and all. How were they able to live thru all their tribulations? Maybe that they learned to talk about it and deal with it instead of letting if fester and burst inside. And there was laughter, and stories about other celebrities and other heartaches. But what I liked most was their humanity towards each other and that unsinkable spirit that kept them going until all energy was gone from them. What I liked least about it was these two wonderful women should have know the damage drugs, alcohol and cigarettes would do and avoided them. I heard Carrie drank up to 16 Cokes a day and I wonder if the Coke connection with her father had something to do with her addiction to sodas. And Debbie could have had someone to stop her from performing until she was ready to drop. I know it was her choice but they both could have been saved from themselves by their friends. Thank you ladies for all that you gave and shared and God Bless Todd now alone

I saw this last month at the AFI. Funny, witty, charming, sad, tragic...all of this...now even more sad and tragic with Carrie's passing today. I am so glad I saw this while she was still living. It was filmed over a year ago, but it was so moving and touching. My heart goes out to Debbie, we all thought she'd pass before her daughter. You made a difference Carrie and you left a legacy of your own behind. This documentary is about a mother and daughter, a famous mother and daughter at that. They went through so many hard times, yet there were wonderful times as well. Both are legends in their own right. Two legends in the same family.
