Heb je Stranger Things al gezien? Zo niet, dan hoop ik dat het dit weekend gaat regenen, want het is tijd voor een goede bingesessie. De Netflix zomerhit is niet alleen een fantastisch spannende en verslavende serie, maar ook een prachtige ode aan de jaren '80 en de meer dan verdiende comeback van Winona Rider.

Dat die laatste stiekem nog steeds in de jaren '80 is blijven hangen, blijkt uit het interview dat vakblad Variety met de actrice en tegenspeelster Milly Bobby Brown (de briljante Eleven) had. Winona, die door Milly 'Noni' wordt genoemd, had namelijk geen idee wat Snapchat is ('she thought it was chips'). En van de fans van Taylor Swift had ze al helemaal nooit gehoord ('The Swifties? Like a Swifty Picker Upper? I have one of those to clean my house.').

Wat een held!

Een fragment uit het interview:

Winona, you're not on social media. Have you followed the reaction "Stranger Things" has had this summer?

Winona Ryder: No, but people have shown me things.

Millie BobbyBrown: It's been amazing. You got an A+ from Stephen King.

Ryder: That was crazy.

Brown: Not only social media, but reporters and press in general have been so supportive. The fans — apparently they're called the Strangers.

Ryder: What is that?

Brown: I had no idea what they were called, and I said, "We need to find a name." Because, like the Taylor Swift fans are called the Swifties …

Ryder: I didn't know that. The Swifties? Like a Swifty Picker Upper? I have one of those to clean my house.

Brown: [laughs] She thought Snapchat was chips.

Ryder: Because in "Heathers" we had the Snappy Snack Shack. It was the 7-Eleven place. I thought it had something to do with food.

Have you seen Snapchat now?

Brown: We were doing Snapchat on lunch. I have the best picture of her, with the bee [filter]. I got you at the right time. She got so scared.

Ryder: It's like the mirrors when you go to the fair and they have those weird reflections, you're tiny or super stretched.

Brown: Obviously, Noni's not on social media and I am. It's amazing because you see so many great reviews about the show and about Noni and really everyone. And IMDb is crazy. Winona's number five.
