Surprisingly, in my opinion, Winona's performance was one of the best in this film. She NAILED the part of desparately clinging onto that last bit of what was left of her old life only to have Natalie Portman's character pretty much sweeping it away from her.
Because I've been watching so many of her old movies in my mind, Winona has remained this timeless young person. Maybe owing to the fact I've seen Edward Scissorhands so many times, I don't know. But watching this made me sad as I realized she's growing up, I'm growing up, and it's not the 90s anymore :(
@imyumi i have the same feeling.. i saw Edward Scissorhands for about, well, 3 times on the last two weeks. she was sooo beautiful there... i just lovee watching her
after the 2000 she somehow loses the spark she has, but that's okay, i'm still a fan or her... :)
No bro, my point isn't about how old she is, or how she looks now. What I mean is Winona is a different person since around 2000. She is everything but not the same talented person that she was 20 years ago, somehow she lose the spark/charisma... for me Winona is dead :/
winona is perfect, Johnny Depp and who lost, after Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder ended, he was with Kate Moss, accused of being an addict, and soon after was with Vanessa Paradis, with whom this until today, their children are beautiful, but if they would be more of winona.
Winona is sucha an amazing actress. Personally I think she could have been in the league of actresses like Kate Winslet if it wasn't for her personal problems.
@loboestepario2424 it's just a phrase that native English speaking people use to portray a sense of unity. If I'm talking to myy friend and I say, "I just don't understand why someone would do something like that, you know?" I'm asking her opinion on the situation as well as including her in my question. Sorry if that doesn't make sense...
To have Winona, Natalie and Mila in this film was a dream come true. Thank you Darren Aronofsky for putting these three gorgeousand talented sweethearts in the same film. Thank you!
@graverobber35 all wrong are human beings Johnny Depp stole and smashed the hotel and see what he has now also movies and Angelina Beautiful Everyone wants to go back to Johnny
@asrar36 you must be another celebrity worshipper. Don't you know they commit these crimes for publicity for their cheap movies? Whenever they are given a ticket for driving backwards down the highway , it's because they have a movie coming out. I am tired of hearing about their crimes , they don't get my money at the box office. Without publicity, they are nothing. Stop glorifying them.By the way, your comment does not make sense.
Natalie Portman is more of a modern day Audrey Hepburn than Winona Ryder. Hopefully everyone will love and respect Winona Ryder again as a person and an actress because she is really versatile.
@MrGirlfucker She was born in 1971 but she disappeared this last decade. That's why it's such a shock to see her now in 2011 at 40. We didn't see her transition in age. She still looks great though - I hope I look that fresh at 40!
@fuschiadea She didn't "disappear this last decade." Zoolander, Mr. Deeds, S1m0ne, The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, The Darwin Awards, A Scanner Darkly, The Ten, Sex and Death 101, The Last Word, The Informers, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, Stay Cool, Star Trek, When Love Is Not Enough: The Lois Wilson Story, and Blank Swan: are you saying these movies never happened?
she was beautiful and is still beautiful. and to all of the people who think she is looking old i would like to see you guys look like that at her age. perfect lady!
@soggyringlets They all do look very similar. In fact, Kiera Knightley played Sabe, Padme's bodyguard/decoy queen in Star Wars Episode I (who was played by Natalie Portman).
Facelift around the eyes gives that pulled-latex look; she gets away with it now, but her skin has always been excellent: the problem with yo-yo dieting is that it loosens the skin, agitates it, then the sag factor happens..it's called getting old. I hope she stays clear of any further "work"; she should age like Bardot, gracefully. The bottom line is that every person who has had extensive surgery LOOKS it!! Jennifer Connellly looks GREAT for her age, both use the same make-up. True!
@juliaxbadulia I LOVE that fact that she's aging honestly. She doesn't feel paranoid to go and get botox or any of that nonsense. And it works, I mean yes she looks older, but she still looks so beautiful.
@juliaxbadulia I was just thinking the same thing..just watched Edward Scissorhands and she was so gorgeous..then again that film is 21 years old..heh.
When I was younger I used to confuse Winona Ryder, Natalie Portman, and Kiera Knightley with each other. This really isn't important in anyway, but I thought I would share it with you. You're welcome.
@EscarneoExquisito Really? I find her to be very typically and recognizeably Winona Rider. Remember "Girl Interrupted" with her and Angelina Jolie? She's very similar here in this movie.
Saw it today. Just had NO idea she was even in it. Did a double take when I saw the poster of her character on the building, thought, "That looks kinda like..."
Seriously, she was wicked disturbing in this. I was glued to the edge of my seat in the few scenes she had. I hope she gets some kind of award because she deserves it. She wasn't in it but for maybe a few minutes total but MAN... unbelievably tragic, memorable, terrifying character.

Why did she pull up a thorn from her body? Isn't black swan a play or did she really turn into a swan ? And her eyes were as red as fire. . . What was that about exactly?
Wow, she looks so old! ._. I remember her in House of Spirits, she was such a cute tomboyish girl... Though maybe it's the excess of make-up on her...
Winona and Barbara Hershey are the unsung heroes of Black Swan - I loved both their performances. It's not necessarily the amount of screen time actors have; it's about how they use it to make their mark and I have to say that both definitely made an impact with me and with others by the looks of it.
Winona is done -she blew it. She probably rocked on the casting couch to get this tiny role that almost an B actress could have played. I tihnk she was on screen a total of 3 minutes. No surprise and not a big deal - many artists are a flash in the pan and even if they aren't self destructive they just don't have the longevity anyway. Winona is both.
She was about the only thing worth watching in Black Swan. Her scenes with Portman were the only ones that had some chemistry. The rest of the movie felt forced, uncertain about what it wanted to be.
It was so ridiculous to find Winona in it, by chance, didn't even know she was involved. At first I thought it was some cameo she was doing, but then... It was like finding your favorite sweater, lost for years, in a closet full of artificially artsy clothes.
@Alekkkkkkkkk Maybe it felt forced because that's they way it was supposed to be? It's a movie about doubles, and losing who you are, forcing yourself to the extreme to achieve the perfection you're looking for. It's not a dandy, pwetty, sweet ballet movie.
The only good scene of her in the whole movie was when she "stabbed" herself.
@akissy What do you mean? It was meant to be overly artsy without a good reason? Is that ballet? With this high-caliber cast? It doesn't do any genre, anything properly. I wasn't confused or amused, there was nothing to get other than what you've written. I can accept the 'white swan' coming off as forced, but the 'black' one felt as forced as the other. Didn't want pwetty ballet, wanted something, it gave me nothing. Except Nona. Saying I'm supposed to like it because I'm supposed to like it?
@Alekkkkkkkkk Maybe you don't understand it because you have no idea the themes that are being presented. the genres're body horror, and psychological thriller. The way Nina felt her budding psychosis, coupled with her obsession on being perfect, how her mother was ridding her from herself, how she was fighting to be free... it all was very well depicted, mirroring the story of Swan Lake. You weren't supposed to be confused, nor amused, that's why you weren't.
@akissy It's not overly artsy, it's actually very close to reality, the way the hallucinations were presented, the frustration, and the obsession. Artists live like that, in a passionate crazy way.
Oh and Winona's part... I agree time on screen isn't relevant to a good performance... but honestly, she could've given more to the already small character. It seemed to me as if she was just doing it to do it. I didn't feel neither pity nor hate for her.
@ZidaneSteiner I do't watch stuff like South Park, too many curse words, very little nurturing content. ^^ I like satire, I just like elegant satire. ^^
@akissy Interestingly enough, this is the same conversation I had yesterday with two, slightly obese, unattractive women and an effeminate man. Hell, this is the final argument you ever hear used if you don't like Swan. 'How dare you expect something at all! Nat's in there you tool! Also, Art!'
By Lathander for the Nth time, I did get the themes, you cannot not get it. That's one of the many issues, it doesn't provoke thought at all. It touches many a genre yet does nothing. Also, Perfect Blue.
@Alekkkkkkkkk Well, I'm not obese, actually I'm kinda underweight. ^^ I'm not exactly pretty, but I'm not unattractive, as you can see from my thumbnail. ^^Perfect Blue was well written too. Look, if you don't like it fine. That's your opinion, but you can't say it's not a good movie and expect to be taken as a fact. ^^ I liked it because I'm Paranoid, and the way they portrayed her Psychosis was real and accurate, so I liked how they did that. *shrugs* It's ok to disagree. ^^
@akissy the true story is about how nina has been sexually abused by her mother from early age and it eventually drives her crazy. its hinted at several times thourghout the movie
@Kjelliiz Nah. Nina's mother is overprotective and is a bit neurotic as well. There's no sexual abuse hints in the picture. She keeps her daughter in a child-like state because it's easier for her to control Nina. Being innocent, fearful, and delicate means Nina hasn't really experienced a normal maturing process. I was an overprotected child, being only child and a girl to boot. I recognized a lot of my parents' reactions in Nina's mothers'. That's not sexual abuse: it's called control.
@akissy More over, Nina's mother is projecting her fears and wants on Nina. She doesn't think Nina is able to be a prima ballerina because she herself wasn't, and she sees her daughter as an extension of herself. And she wants Nina to keep on being a good girl, because she would've wanted not to make the "mistakes" that "ended" her career.
Winona Ryder was AMAZING in "Black Swan". Then again, everyone was just fantastic. I loved Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel, Barbara Hershey. I seriously think this is the best acted film of 2010. For me to think 5 people are worthy of an Oscar in the same movie is something.
Not only that, but I think this is the BEST movie of 2010. Best directing, best acting, best cinematography. The script was also mind-blowing. I am DEFINITELY seeing this one again. Hope Portman gets an Oscar.
Drugs -when she was caught shoplifting, she had like 18 different prescription medications in her purse. She is only 39, and since then has hardly acted - 10 years ago. Christy Brinkly is almost 59, but a real goody two shoes - but she looks great.
i saw black swan at home and i went to the cinema just for the expirience, and they cut ther movie. the scene after she danced the black swan she returns to her room and lilly knocks and says what she has to say and suddenly nina holds a piece of glass in her hand. there was no part when she goes to the bathroom and realising what she did. did it happen to any of you, or should i blame it on the cinema i was in?
I love her because she's one of the few hollywood actresses who hasn't butchered herself to stay 'young.' She still looks great. I'd cast her as catwoman in a second. She has the age, the edge and the ass for the part.
@dancemankind94 I've seen the movie, and actually, that's not really a spoiler. There is so much more that happens, so that scene is like nothing compared to everything else.
@salizarrr I want to see this movie but I'm scared it will traumatize me. The trailer alone is disturbing (like the bloody eyes and the ripping out of barbed metal in the flesh). Will I still be able to sleep if I watch this flick?
@Hipmister3000 Are you kidding me, son? She's got those "I'm about to be a hag..." droopy looking eyes and that nasty, "I think so much my head is gonna explode!" vein sticking out the side of her head. She needs a meal.
Very beautiful woman. She looks even more attractive in her 40's than when she was younger. Great actress. So sad that this hypocrite and puritan american society and movie industry have deprived us from enjoying her talent.
I LOVE Winona ! I miss her so much ! Winona please do more movies PLEASE !!!!!!!!

Winona is done -she blew it. She probably rocked on the casting couch to get this tiny role that almost an B actress could have played. I tihnk she was on screen a total of 3 minutes. No surprise and not a big deal - many artists are a flash in the pan and even if they aren't self destructive they just don't have the longevity anyway. Winona is both.

She was about the only thing worth watching in Black Swan. Her scenes with Portman were the only ones that had some chemistry. The rest of the movie felt forced, uncertain about what it wanted to be.
It was so ridiculous to find Winona in it, by chance, didn't even know she was involved. At first I thought it was some cameo she was doing, but then... It was like finding your favorite sweater, lost for years, in a closet full of artificially artsy clothes.

@Alekkkkkkkkk Maybe it felt forced because that's they way it was supposed to be? It's a movie about doubles, and losing who you are, forcing yourself to the extreme to achieve the perfection you're looking for. It's not a dandy, pwetty, sweet ballet movie.
The only good scene of her in the whole movie was when she "stabbed" herself.
akissy 11 months ago
@akissy What do you mean? It was meant to be overly artsy without a good reason? Is that ballet? With this high-caliber cast? It doesn't do any genre, anything properly. I wasn't confused or amused, there was nothing to get other than what you've written. I can accept the 'white swan' coming off as forced, but the 'black' one felt as forced as the other. Didn't want pwetty ballet, wanted something, it gave me nothing. Except Nona. Saying I'm supposed to like it because I'm supposed to like it?

@Alekkkkkkkkk Maybe you don't understand it because you have no idea the themes that are being presented. the genres're body horror, and psychological thriller. The way Nina felt her budding psychosis, coupled with her obsession on being perfect, how her mother was ridding her from herself, how she was fighting to be free... it all was very well depicted, mirroring the story of Swan Lake. You weren't supposed to be confused, nor amused, that's why you weren't.
akissy 11 months ago
@akissy It's not overly artsy, it's actually very close to reality, the way the hallucinations were presented, the frustration, and the obsession. Artists live like that, in a passionate crazy way.
Oh and Winona's part... I agree time on screen isn't relevant to a good performance... but honestly, she could've given more to the already small character. It seemed to me as if she was just doing it to do it. I didn't feel neither pity nor hate for her.

@akissy you read too much into it, just like that South Park episode "scrotie mcboogerballs" That episode was made for people like you.

@ZidaneSteiner I do't watch stuff like South Park, too many curse words, very little nurturing content. ^^ I like satire, I just like elegant satire. ^^

@akissy Interestingly enough, this is the same conversation I had yesterday with two, slightly obese, unattractive women and an effeminate man. Hell, this is the final argument you ever hear used if you don't like Swan. 'How dare you expect something at all! Nat's in there you tool! Also, Art!'
By Lathander for the Nth time, I did get the themes, you cannot not get it. That's one of the many issues, it doesn't provoke thought at all. It touches many a genre yet does nothing. Also, Perfect Blue.
Alekkkkkkkkk 11 months ago
@Alekkkkkkkkk Well, I'm not obese, actually I'm kinda underweight. ^^ I'm not exactly pretty, but I'm not unattractive, as you can see from my thumbnail. ^^Perfect Blue was well written too. Look, if you don't like it fine. That's your opinion, but you can't say it's not a good movie and expect to be taken as a fact. ^^ I liked it because I'm Paranoid, and the way they portrayed her Psychosis was real and accurate, so I liked how they did that. *shrugs* It's ok to disagree. ^^

@akissy the true story is about how nina has been sexually abused by her mother from early age and it eventually drives her crazy. its hinted at several times thourghout the movie
Kjelliiz 11 months ago
@Kjelliiz Nah. Nina's mother is overprotective and is a bit neurotic as well. There's no sexual abuse hints in the picture. She keeps her daughter in a child-like state because it's easier for her to control Nina. Being innocent, fearful, and delicate means Nina hasn't really experienced a normal maturing process. I was an overprotected child, being only child and a girl to boot. I recognized a lot of my parents' reactions in Nina's mothers'. That's not sexual abuse: it's called control.
akissy 11 months ago
@akissy More over, Nina's mother is projecting her fears and wants on Nina. She doesn't think Nina is able to be a prima ballerina because she herself wasn't, and she sees her daughter as an extension of herself. And she wants Nina to keep on being a good girl, because she would've wanted not to make the "mistakes" that "ended" her career.

Winona Ryder was AMAZING in "Black Swan". Then again, everyone was just fantastic. I loved Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel, Barbara Hershey. I seriously think this is the best acted film of 2010. For me to think 5 people are worthy of an Oscar in the same movie is something.
Not only that, but I think this is the BEST movie of 2010. Best directing, best acting, best cinematography. The script was also mind-blowing. I am DEFINITELY seeing this one again. Hope Portman gets an Oscar.

Drugs -when she was caught shoplifting, she had like 18 different prescription medications in her purse. She is only 39, and since then has hardly acted - 10 years ago. Christy Brinkly is almost 59, but a real goody two shoes - but she looks great.

i saw black swan at home and i went to the cinema just for the expirience, and they cut ther movie. the scene after she danced the black swan she returns to her room and lilly knocks and says what she has to say and suddenly nina holds a piece of glass in her hand. there was no part when she goes to the bathroom and realising what she did. did it happen to any of you, or should i blame it on the cinema i was in?

I love her because she's one of the few hollywood actresses who hasn't butchered herself to stay 'young.' She still looks great. I'd cast her as catwoman in a second. She has the age, the edge and the ass for the part.
