Winona Ryder Advocates for Film Education

Winona Ryder, in recent interviews, expressed her frustration with younger co-stars who seem disinterested in cinema, notably questioning the length of films as a deterrent. Reflecting on her career and the evolution of film, she acknowledged a generational gap exacerbated by social media, stating, 'I don’t mean to sound so hopeless... there are a few that are just not interested in movies.' However, she praised younger actors like Jenna Ortega and Finn Wolfhard for their cinephile passion. Ryder described her protective sentiment towards film history, lamenting that many young actors lack curiosity about it. She humorously acknowledged feeling like a relic in the industry, wishing for a resurgence of appreciation for film's rich heritage.
