I first remember seeing a clip of Star Wars in 1977 on the News at 5.45 here in the UK. It was the clip when they're fighting the Tie-Fighters after escaping the Death Star in the Falcon, as a 10 year old I was totally amazed by what I was seeing. I started buying Magazines like Starburst and going through the Newspapers my Dad brought in for clippings about this film. Hard to believe that was 30 years ago. Pity he fucked things up big style with the Prequels and the Special Editions.
I could have went with a Star Wars poster for the pic, but hey I thought this pic of Carrie Fisher was way better !

I sometimes forget how cute Carrie was back then. Haven't seen this pic before, I may keep it for later....
Hubba Hubba ! Carrie Fisher looks sweet in that picture.
Michael I'd hate to think what you're keeping it for !!
Wow. My postcard from the edge now has very wobbly handwriting.
She was an absolute scorcher... and for my money still has that certain something... Luke must have been so cheesed off that she was his sister!
didn't she state that she got the part because she slept with Lucas?
for THAT i envy him...
I heard she slept with Chewbacca...or did I dream that !?!?
Chewbacca slept with Lucas. And that is a great picture! Why didn't she dress like that in the film? Sigh...
Well...I guess the belt and 'flashdance' shirt wouldn't have fit in too well.
And Michael, wash your hands!
naaah, Chewie wanted a piece of her but he always got rebuffed.
