Sadly she's no longer with us, but I'd say Carrie Fisher. My God, she was fabulous.

Carrie Fisher, yes! I really enjoyed Wishful Drinking on Netflix. I haven't read her though, is she mainly an essayist or an author?

Reading what I wrote, I wanted to be clear that I know that she was *primarily* an actor lol. I am old enough to have watched her choke out Jabba with a manacle chain back on the big screen. I'll have to check out some of her writing as well.

Ohhh, check out her writing. It's as smart, sharp, self-deprecatingly funny, and original as she was.

Margaret Atwood - I love her snarky humour. Also, though with a COMPLETELY different flavour, Randy Rainbow. 😂

Yes she is world-class, isn’t she?. And Randy, definitely has a bit of Wilde in him. Actually I bet he’d make a joke out of that haha.

😂💯 The Guardian writer Marina Hyde also fits in this category, now that I think about it.

Jack Nicholson. His wit has been so well delivered in many of his movies I can’t think of a better one to admire.

Jack! As Good As It Gets, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and of course The Shining are all great.

I saw Annie Hall for the first time and had to do some Googling to figure out how Woody Allen made that movie and still got caught up in Me Too. And I would say, Diane Keaton.

It's a classic.
