Show Notes
Actor and podcaster Maisie Williams presents the next chapter in the Winona Ryder story.
By the mid-90s, Winona’s firmly on the A-List. She uses that power to champion female writers and directors, and speaks to the hopes and fears of Generation X in 1994’s Reality Bites. But it’s Girl, Interrupted, a passion project 6 years in the making, that represents the high-point of her creative life so far.
Its raw conversations around mental health are about to become shockingly relevant to Winona’s real life. Because a new tabloid feeding frenzy is about to roar into life - one that puts everything she’s worked for at risk.
A Cup and Nuzzle Production. Produced by Natalie Jamieson.
