Winona Ryder is a film buff, and she desperately wants her younger costars to be, too. In recent interviews while promoting her role in Tim Burton's upcoming sequel "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice," the Oscar-nominated actor lamented how some of the young actors she's worked with over the years just aren't interested in watching movies. Whether it's working with the "Stranger Things" kids or Jenna Ortega in the "Beetlejuice" sequel, Ryder told Esquire that she's all too aware that "I've gone from being the youngest person on set to being the oldest."

As the Los Angeles Times noted in a recent profile: "Ryder appreciates being able to interact with the emerging generation of filmgoers who remind her of herself, and tells me enthusiastically how her 'Stranger Things' co-star Finn Wolfhard is obsessed with Elliott Gould. Still, she grows frustrated when there's a lack of curiosity among her younger colleagues."

"I don't want to sound so hopeless," she added to the magazine. "There are some who just aren't interested in movies. The first thing they say is, 'How long is it?'"
