Henry Winkler says America doesn't embrace older generation like other countries do

Henry Winkler is speaking his truth.

While attending the AARP's Movies for Grownups Awards, the veteran actor, 80, shared his thoughts with Fox News Digital about how the older generation is treated in the U.S. versus other countries.

"Well, you know, only in America is the more mature generation not completely embraced. And that's where the wisdom comes from, I think. That's who I learned from," he said.

Winkler also touched on his friendship with fellow actor Adam Sandler and how they became friends.
