Bolesroor Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I had a crush on her when I was a kid, but I totally grew out of that. But now I love her more than ever before: when she guest-hosted this Summer she was great and I can't wait to see her on Wednesday. In the promo she says to Robert Osborne: "You better look out... I'm gunning for your job!" I know she was kidding, and God Forbid if Mr. O EVER leaves TCM, but I wouldn't mind seeing Winona stop by once a week to partner with him... or even do the overnights. She is so beautiful and such a great hostess... I honestly think she's better at this than as an actress (and that's no insult to her.) She's just awesome... Winona if you are reading this, call me.

TopBilled Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Sorry. Not in love with Winona. I think she was woefully miscast in AGE OF INNOCENCE (and I don't see how she earned an Oscar nomination for it). But I think she is perfect in the 1994 remake of LITTLE WOMEN. She does a splendid job, but I think I probably can tolerate her more in that one because she doesn't carry the film...she shares the load with Susan Sarandon.

DownGoesFrazier Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I'm confused. Aren't you the one who started the thread, "For Ladies Only"? You are all over the place.......I just saw VICTOR/VICTORIA, so I can appreciate just about anything.

VP19 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 As long as you don't say she stole your heart. (Apologies to Winona, who's probably long past that kleptomaniac stage of her life, but someone was going to make that wisecrack sooner or later.)

Bolesroor Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 LOL... yes, Finance. I am a man. I like women. I started that other thread to give the female fans here a chance to name the men they found attractive because I feel like we guys are always talking about the actresses we like. It never occurred to me that anyone would think I wasn't a guy but I guess in that thread I didn't specify. :^0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaslovesTCM Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I loved her character in BeetleJuice and she was a breath of fresh air but her voice became irritating after awhile and her range seemed kind of limited she is a beauty though and made short hair fashionable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriegerg69 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 To me she IS the entire Beetlejuice movie. That's how I think of her to this day. Also enjoyed her first "adult" role in Bram Stoker's Dracula, and liked her in Alien Resurrection...but not a great fan of hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USAFANG67 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I'm sure Winona has more than her attention of men being in love with her :-) Love her role in the Alien's series. I wonder if she enjoyed doing that part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM108 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I scarcely know what to make of Ryder these days, as my everlasting memory of her will always be that of a foul-mouthed and somewhat androgynous taxi driver in Jim Jarmusch's Night on Earth , a film which I would LOVE to see sometime soon on TCM. AFAIC both she and Rosie Perez should have won Oscars for their roles in that most sublime of modern era comedies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyGeetar Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Her choices (aside from the rarely screened The Front ) are a trifle uninspired, but nonetheless, she did a fantastic job guest hosting this summer and she's been fantastic thus far tonight- the anecdotes are inspired, her rapport with Os is great and her entusiasm is palpable. I really wish she was doing The Essentials instead of Drew Poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
