It’s amazing how good these interviews are.

10 Cloverfield Lane was BRILLIANT and comes out of nowhere and she just slays in it!!! Check it out!!

It still hurts that Scott Pilgrim flopped at the box office, MEW is very underrated.

I wanted to see Birds of Prey because of Margot Robbie, but I know now that Mary Elizabeth will be in that movie as well!!! Can't wait for it!

It actually could be very cool if they could write a big movie where the Partner of the lead (ultimately a co-lead) helps just as much but in a different way. Bounce back and forth between them and have it weave together towards the end. Good books tend to sometimes have a few characters that without their path and efforts the true heroic or good ending couldn’t happen. Or she could be a bad ass operator who goes against John Wick and gets as much screen time. But if they decide to make a decent Alien movie again she should be their first call. Love that she digs genre stuff.

Listening to these interviews just makes me like her even more as a person.

Can anyone tell me how to do my hair like that? Looks flocking incredible, like it's freeze-framed mid-wind gust or underwater.

Even with the spectacular now she was great, and her role was fairly minor in that amazing film.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead is somewhat of a hidden treasure. Simply meaning: Give us more, Mary Elizabeth!!!

[Corvmatt]

She should have been Captain Marvel. She would have made it way better.

[m.k.m.]

I really admire her for being selective about what piques her interests.

I loved the role John played opposite her i wanted that role...like when he gets all clean shaven n groomed and she is like totally creeped out. I would be so good at that!!!

[joelbaker]

She fucked up.
Would probably have a better carrer by now.
But I can respect a woman with pride.

[ArchitechtofAnarchy]

Sam should've asked her what was it like to break Ewan Mcgregor's marriage

[darkdragon]

i think shes in to many movies because she sleeps with directors and date producers and she get a role in a movie

[Hassony]

You look at how classy she's from head to toe then you see sneakers.. fricking white old sneakers..

[tracyaminute]

She chose one of her last big roles so that she could have an affair with Ewan McGregor (that fool) and destroy his family and his life. She is not a nice woman.
