Anna Kendrick Character Quotations

I feel like you can't get an audience to like your character if she's actually cool, but you can if she's trying to be cool and sometimes fails.

You can't tell an audience to like a character. And I think the best way to get the audience on someone's side is to embarrass them.

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 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.

With any other movie, you're entering new territory, so it's quite different to be involved in something where it's the same characters, and the same people.

I do admit that I've never been one to fit in easily to any given pattern. It's not my choice. It's just the way I am. So if the characters I wind up playing are all a bit different, it must be because that's the way I like it. Anna Kendrick is different, and she's going to stay that way.
