Product Description

Product Description

Using none of the traditional routes, Winona Ryder established herself as the single most exciting actress of her generation. From her Hollywood movie debut at the age of thirteen to starring alongside Sigourney Weaver in Alien Resurrection, this affectionate biography traces the events and circumstances that shaped her career and propelled her from teen star to cultural icon. This specially prepared digital edition has been completely revised by restoring passages cut out of the original 1998 manuscript together with the addition of new material.

disastrous biography 15 May 2009
Format:Paperback
This book does not do justice to an actor I consider the - by far - best of her generation. She was working with the best directors from the very beginning of her career all the way up to the shoplifting incident. Every movie a fine study in her excellent art, my favourite being The age of Innocence. This book is a disaster. If you read german you'll get more value for money by Frank Schnelle's "Winona Ryder Das gesicht der neunziger Jahre" published in 1995. Both books lack an update on the past 15 years though.

Beautiful. 10 Feb 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book gives a good synopsis of the life of the beautiful and talented actress Winona Ryder. It goes through her years, telling of the influences her 60's-ish family had on her, her aspiration to be an actress, and, in one instance, when she was beaten up in school for "looking like a boy." This book is also beautifully illustrated. The photographs highlight her life well, and allow a lot of reader inflection. A journey through someone else's shoes which you will truly enjoy.

Not much in-depth information, bit superficial. 11 Feb 1999
By "dartel" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I expected much more information on how Winona Ryder really is, her hobbies, likes and dislikes etc. If I am correct, the author of this book didn't even have contact with ms. Ryder herself. Still, it gives a summary of her movies, which is nice.

A GOOD LOOK AT A GOOD ACTRESS 28 Aug 2004
By COOL JEWEL - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
THIS IS ABOUT WINONA RYDER, ONE OF THE BETTER ACTRESSES IN HOLLYWOOD. A SOMEWHAT LIMITED BUT CANDID LOOK AT HER LIFE AND FILMS. THE BOOK MOSTLY IS FOCUSED ON HER MOVIES AND HAS SOME INTERESTING TIDBITS ABOUT HER. HER BOUTS WITH INSOMNIA, RELATIONSHIP WITH JOHNNY DEPP, AND UPBRINGING BY HIPPIE PARENTS MAKE THIS A WORTH WHILE READ. TOO BAD THERE WASN'T MORE DETAILS ABOUT HER PRIVATE LIFE. STILL A NICE READ AND RECOMMENDED FOR FANS OF THIS TALENTED BIG SCREEN STAR.
