4. Her Favourite Movies Are The Women, Wet Hot American Summer & Hot Fuzz
Everybody who's anybody has their own eclectic list of favourite movies, and Anna Kendrick is no different. Aside from The Lord of the Rings movies, then, Anna's favourite films include: The Women, George Cukor's 1939 comedy classic, which features defining performances from Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, Paulette Goddard, Joan Fontaine and features absolutely no men at all; Hot Fuzz, the British comedy directed by her former boyfriend Edgar Wright and starring Simon Pegg; and Wet Hot American Summer, which starred Paul Rudd and is - for all intents and purposes - not great, and yet it has a huge cult following. So there. Brush up on these movies if you haven't seen them, just in case you end up meeting Anna Kendrick on a whim and you need to impress her with your film knowledge.
