an eerie resemblance to Winona because of her season 4 wig, the 50-year-old
actress said, “It was wild seeing her like that. When I was that age, I had
dyed-black [hair], goth going on. But there is definitely a resemblance.”


SADIE SINK’S LEGEND FROM STRANGER THINGS

Max was a new comer to the Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things] clan. Being exposed to a
difficult childhood made Max more rugged than most kids her age. She became an
integral part of the gang because of her solid ideas and her strength to execute
them.

Sadie beautifully performed as Max, a kid who feels alienated in a new town, to
a kid who acts a leader to her friends in need. Max is as sensitive as she is
strong. This was seen when she mourned Billy
