Recalling the behind-the-scenes incident of their first film, Winona Ryder shared how Keanu Reeves refused the director’s request to shout abuse at her. In an interview with The Sunday Times, Ryder said that Coppola, the Oscar-winning director, told his male cast members to insult the actress to make her emotions seem believable. “To put it in context, I’m supposed to be crying. Literally, Richard E Grant, Anthony Hopkins, Keanu … Francis was trying to get all of them to yell things that would make me cry,” said the actress.
