Carrie Fisher and Paul Simon

Shelley Duvall and Paul Simon dated from 1976 to 1978.

They met in New York when Shelley was there to film Woody Allen’s Annie Hall.

After Annie Hall wrapped, she quickly went back to Hollywood to get her things and then moved into Paul’s place in New York. They lived together for 2.5 years at his duplex penthouse overlooking Central Park.

“I’d always wanted to move to New York, from the first time I came here. And then I guess Paul was an extra added attraction, a New Yorker boyfriend.” (Shelley Duvall on moving in with Paul – Interview Magazine, September 1977)

Shelley has said that she and Paul clicked right away and “I loved his smile and the fact that he’s very smart.” (Daily News, 1977)

Ultimately it was The Shining that brought them apart. Shelley Duvall and Paul Simon split up as she was getting ready to leave to start filming. This breakup contributed to some of the stress she felt while on set.

"The day before I left for London we decided to part. I knew I'd be away some time, but in any event our relationship wouldn't have lasted. The chemistry was just wrong between us. It wasn't right from the beginning, but it took us time to find out.” (LA Times, 1980)

Shelley introduced Paul to Carrie Fisher, whom he later dated and married.

They met at the LA Critics Award in 1977, the same night Shelley won Best Actress and Star Wars was honored.

“I introduced them, at the party afterward. I could see there was an attraction there, but if Carrie hadn't come along, somebody else would have. This may sound surprising, but Paul and I are better friends than we were lovers.” (Shelley on Paul & Carrie – Cosmopolitan, 1981)

Shelley and Paul were just never meant to be although Shelley cast him as Simple Simon in her 1990 movie Mother Goose.

Carrie Fisher met musician Paul Simon while filming Star Wars, and the pair dated from 1977 until 1983. He characterized Fisher as adept at handling the media attention constantly turned her way, saying she could “make it work for her. She was really good at it, and I wasn’t.” Fisher stated that even after their divorce they remained in a relationship, “Then we dated again. We were together for more than 12 years (off and on) and we traveled a lot. The last place we went to was the Amazon, which I recommend if you like mosquitoes.”

Sure your last breakup was bad but unless your last breakup caused someone to write one of the greatest albums of the 80s and cement the global careers of Ladysmith Black Mambazo you are not on Carrie Fisher's level.

hello sorry i have no idea how tumblr works so idk were i have to write to answer your question abt the photoshoot with paul and carrie but. to answer your question, it was for the mv of rene and georgette magritte w their dog after the war!! you can find it here :) https://youtu.be/0vDAubIlYOs

Omg thank you!! I made a Rene and Georgette Magritte w/ their dog after the war joke in the tags and everything wow. Well, that explains why they look like timetravellers!!

I've never seen this music video before. I appreciate all of the visual Magritte references but damn, someone sure was excited to squeeze every available transition effect into one video and make everyone feel like they're having a stroke. (I'm sure this was very cool at the time lmao.)

Thank you so much for sharing this! /gen

I see the vision now and by God, they understood the assignment. I now appreciate this photoshoot tenfold.
