Winona Ryder began her career as an actress at the age of 15. She admitted that she faced harassment on the set.
The 52-year-old Hollywood star shared rare revelations from the life of the actress. The girl from Minnesota began her film career early – at the age of 15, Winona made her debut in the 1986 film Lucas, after which she appeared in the films Quadrille, Heathers, 1969. At the age of 16, the girl starred in Tim Burton’s comedy horror film Beetlejuice, which was the first breakthrough in her career.
Ryder admitted that she first faced sexual harassment in the 90s, when she was 20 years old. “I’ve had a couple of difficult situations with a few people who were just sexually harassing me. And then it happened again, when I was about 30. It was not an attack. But it was incredibly inappropriate. It was wild,” Winona said.
The winner of the Golden Globe Award was already known by that time, and publicity became a kind of protection for her. “I was lucky because I was famous, so it didn’t happen as often as it would have happened if I had been an aspiring actress. But I remember that feeling in your mind: you’re negotiating, you’re thinking about what will happen if you say something. You think about the situation, while this person behaves extremely creepy,” said Johnny Depp’s ex-lover.
As she grew older, Winona learned to rebuff men, sometimes she stopped attempts to molest them with jokes. “If someone behaved inappropriately or harassed me while drunk, it was like, ‘Haha! What are you doing?!” I coped with it. But touch me?! It was very aggressive,” he quotes Esquire Richard Gere’s partner in the film Autumn in New Yo
Ryder also spoke about an unsuccessful romance – then she was about 20 years old, and she had already tasted fame. The girl went on a date with a guy she liked very much, but it turned out that his feelings were not sincere. “I went to the toilet, and when I came back, he was talking to someone. I overheard him bragging about how he was going to get Winona Ryder into bed. I was depressed. I thought we had a real bond. I was worried about how my life would turn out, and I thought that I would never meet someone who would love me, not a celebrity, “said the owner of a personalized star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Since 2011, Winona has been in a relationship with fashion designer Scott McKinlay Hahn
