It's been less than 18 months since her passing--one day after the death of her daughter Carrie Fisher.
IMHO, she was a fantastic comedienne, especially after she got experience in movie acting.
While SINGIN' IN THE RAIN is one of my favorite movies, I believed that she was underused there.
In fact, Kathy Selden was just an ingenue role, and there was absolutely NO chemistry between her and Gene Kelly.
She was much better in later movies like HOW THE WEST WAS WON and THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN, for which she received her only Oscar nomination.
She did some TV work, too.
She appeared in an otherwise mediocre episode of THE GOLDEN GIRLS, where she was supposed to be Bea Arthur's replacement when Dorothy almost remarried her yutz ex-husband Stan.
I think that Debbie was the only bright part of that dreary episode.
Imagine if she had been a regular on that show.
I hope she and Carrie are happy together in the afterlife.
