Born into a Hollywood dynasty, Drew Barrymore first came to our attention as a child star playing Gertie in E.T.
Excess soon followed and she was abusing drugs and alcohol before adolescence. She overcame her addictions, and as an adult has created a reputation as a gifted and versatile actress with a flair for comedy - in addition to a successful career as a producer. Carolyn talks to her about her role in the upcoming film ‘Music and Lyrics’, also starring Hugh Grant.
Music and Lyrics is in UK cinemas from Friday 9 February
