Anna Kendrick On Shifting From Comedy After Abusive Relationship

Anna described this partner as her “husband” for “all intents and purposes” and noted that they’d been together for six years.

“About six years in, about somewhere around there, I remember telling my brother, when things had first kind of gone down, ‘I’m living with a stranger. Like, I don’t know what’s happening,’” she recalled.

“It was so alarming, and it was so much easier for me to assume I was crazy or I was doing something wrong,” she said.

“I can’t bring up the fact that I’m scared of you because when I do, you get really scary,” she recalled thinking.
