The reviews for Carrie Fisher's one-woman Broadway show, "Wishful Drinking," are all over the map (from "you feel as if you've been stuck in a simultaneously garish and cheap boudoir with a garrulous drag queen who just.

Having followed Fisher since her screen debut in "Shampoo" (how I wanted to BE her and get "seduced" by Warren Beatty -- and have Lee Grant as a mother!) , the show sounds right up my ally.
