Anna Kendrick has recalled the “very icky” time a director tried to shame her in front of a room full of extras.
She went on to recall a story about an unnamed director asking her to improvise something, only to later criticize her performance. The “Pitch Perfect” star, whose directorial debut “Woman of the Hour” is currently screening on Netflix, recalled the uncomfortable episode on the “Happy, Sad, Confused” podcast on Monday. Kendrick was asked by presenter Josh Horowitz what the worst note was that a director had ever given her.
“Woman of the Hour,” in which Kendrick stars, is based on a true story of an aspiring actress and a serial killer whose lives intersect when they meet on an episode of “The Dating Game.” Horowitz asked Kendrick what it was about this movie that made her want to turn to directing. She said that she had been “in a certain situation in my life” when she received the scripts for both that and her 2022 film “Alice, Darling.
