While the rest of Hollywood is sparking and squashing Twitter beefs,  a small band of celebrities want no part of the social-media circus.

Some want nothing to do with technology at all.

Christopher Walken, for instance, told Newsweek last year that he's never had the temptation to do the "masochistic things" enabled by the computer, such as Googling himself.

Here's a group of Luddite celebs who are perfectly happy living in a simpler time.

In a 2016 "Tonight Show" interview, Louis C.K. told Jimmy Fallon that he had sworn off the internet for a month and had no plans of stopping.

The comedian has previously voiced opposition to constant cellphone use, arguing in one 2013 interview on "Conan" that it erodes people's ability to empathize and feel sad.

In an interview with Newsweek about his movie, "The Family Fang," the actor said that it's "peaceful" not to use a computer.

"My wife always says to me, because she has a computer — apparently, you can look yourself up," he said. "You can do all sorts of masochistic things. I never have that temptation."

Whenever Walken shoots a movie, the producers reportedly give him a phone just for the shoot. Once filming ends, he gives it back.

Winona Ryder

In a 2010 interview, Ryder said that she never uses the internet. In a separate interview that year, she said that she almost never uses a computer.

"I have my email on my BlackBerry, and that's about it. I've never read a blog, ever," said the actress, who stars in "Stranger Things."

Now that BlackBerry is all but dead, we wonder how she's communicating with people. Christmas lights, maybe?
