I fall in love with characters when they're out of their element or are uncomfortable and you really feel for them in a knee-jerk sympathetic way.

I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.

I stole comic books from my brother when I was a kid, but I was never like an avid fan. I can't claim to be like a comic book geek.

Similarly, I think I'm lucky that I've never had a crisis about whether the only reason I'm successful is because I'm crazy hot. It's not something that crosses my mind.

I like to think of myself less like 'an adult' and more like a 'former fetus.'
Anna Kendrick
Image
I want to do # stage again, because there just aren't words for how great it is. People say that all the time, There's nothing like live theater, blah blah, but it's really true. I see a show and I know how they feel, and it feels great.

The consummate gentleman on the planet today is George Clooney, who never fails to go the extra mile for people. Every person matters to George.
Anna Kendrick
Image
I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other 'gentleman' stuff is a chess game, especially these days.

I think my iTunes is a kind of strange and embarrassing mix of show tunes and artists that I have no perception of whether or not they're huge or not, you know? I'm the kind of person who doesn't realize that The Arcade Fire is a big deal, but then I expect everybody to know Cocoon, and people tend to not know Cocoon.

I rarely get recognised. It's always a shock when someone notices me. I always think they must be confusing me with someone else.

If a guy was like, 'Let me serenade you,' and it was bad, and I had to lie about it - can't have it.
