"My family has had to become quite understanding about me not returning phone calls when I’m filming." ― Anna Kendrick Topic(s): Family More From Anna Kendrick "My parents got married late and they had kids late, so I never felt a social or cultural thing to be married or pregnant or a homeowner by a certain age." "I graduated from high school early so I could move to New York to do ‘A Little Night Music’ out of the New York City Opera." "My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug. They would drive me down to New York if there were auditions. When I was 12, I did this show on Broadway called ‘High Society,’ so we moved to New York for the run of that." More In Family "I have some cops in my family. I understand the predicament that they’re in. Sometimes they go into it just to pay the bills or because they don’t have other choices, or sometimes they just want to get the gun."― Wesley Snipes "A family with the wrong members in control; that, perhaps, is as near as one can come to describing England in a phrase."― George Orwell "It’s hard enough to work and raise a family when your kids are all healthy and relatively normal, but when you add on some kind of disability or disease, it can just be such a burden."― Patricia Heaton
