It's a great loss.[Carrie Fisher] was a comic genius, as far as I'm concerned.
[Carrie Fisher] could talk about issues that very few people could. She could make her bipolar disorder both real and entertaining. Carrie deserves a lot of credit for giving voice to traumas that few people feel comfortable talking about.
As is well known, [Carrie Fisher] suffered - and was open about it. Her transparency was courageous, which is why people loved her.
