This weekend, over four thousand theaters across the country were flooded with Star Wars fans. Americans young and old turned out to see the debut of Episode VIII: The Last Jedi. If you were there, you saw Carrie Fisher on screen, reprising her iconic role as Princess Leia Organa. Sadly, the actress who stole our hearts as Luke Skywalker’s unwitting twin sister was not there to see the premiere of this latest installment.
