She’s been around for so long, and had such a memorable early career, that it came as quite a shock to me that Winona Ryder is now in her early 50s. It’s also no surprise that she is almost always better than any of the movies she’s appeared in, with the possible exception of Beetlejuice and The End Of The Innocence. (Small surprise that she got an Oscar nomination for the latter, too.)
Nevertheless, you will find Winona in the dictionary under two headings: Gamine Beauty and Haunting Beauty, because she qualifies under both — just at different times in her life.
She is, I think, one of the most beautiful women ever filmed.
I can’t recall ever seeing a film with her in it. I shun about 95% of all films made in the past 40 years.
I did see a nice little black n white piece recently that is about 52 mins long and it can be viewed for free on Youtube, named Million Dollar Hospital.
Yeah, it has “that guy” in it. Check it if you dare.

I am in full agreement with you.
Her personality seem just quirky enough to be entertaining.
She laughingly claims to be married to Keanu Reeves. The director of Dracula used a real priest in the marriage scene. She and Reeves are good friends which puts another check mark in Ms. Ryder’s favor.
