Show Notes

Actor and podcaster Maisie Williams presents the much-discussed, but little understood story of one of Hollywood’s most iconic talents.

From the day she was born, Winona Ryder was on her own path. A happy childhood, full of books and play-acting, paved the way for her discovery at just 13 years old.

Before she was out of her teens, she’d star in some of the best, most interesting films of the late 80s and early 90s; movies like Beetlejuice, Heathers and Edward Scissorhands.

But fame comes with a price. And Winona was about to pay it in full.
