As a devoted fan, it is heart-wrenching yet inspiring to witness Anna Kendrick bravely share her personal struggles with emotional abuse. Her decision to take on the role of Alice Darling in “Stolen from Suburbia” mirrors her real-life experience, and her courage to confront and break free from an abusive relationship is truly commendable.
Anna Kendrick is sharing a vulnerable part of her history.
More recently, the star from ‘Pitch Perfect’ has been open about how her character’s storyline in the 2022 movie ‘Alice Darling’ strikingly reflected her own journey of recognizing she was in an emotionally abusive relationship.
During our recent conversation on the October 23rd episode of “Call Her Daddy”, I shared with you that I had recently ended a relationship remarkably reminiscent of certain films. What made this experience unique was that I chose to immerse myself in a role similar to the one portrayed, and I kept it a secret from my closest confidants because I didn’t want any advice or dissuasion to hinder my decision.
Just as her fictional character struggled to acknowledge the nature of the abuse at first, Anna also shared her struggle in recognizing the issues within her own relationship.
She clarified that the situation didn’t adhere to typical standards, citing her observation of how abuse can gradually evolve. “As I read through various articles, I found myself thinking, ‘This doesn’t seem entirely accurate—some aspects match the descriptions, but it’s not a perfect fit.’ The relationship spanned seven years, yet it suddenly transformed into something else over the course of a year, persisting for approximately twelve months.
Suddenly, without any warning,” the 39-year-old explained, “I felt such strong affection and faith towards that individual that I assumed it was my own actions causing the situation. In my mind, if something was amiss, it must be my fault. Consequently, it took immense courage for me to say, ‘No, I believe this is him.’
For quite some time, it seemed challenging for their therapist at the time to identify the warning signs of abuse that Anna pointed out in the couple’s situation.
Over the past few years, I’ve had numerous heart-to-hearts with our counselor. In those sessions, it seems that he has acknowledged his actions and offered sincere apologies, as I believe he finally understood the dynamics at play just before we reached a resolution.
Actually, it was during one of these sessions where she admitted losing control that proved particularly insightful for Anna, enabling her to examine her relationship from a more objective perspective.
She recalled saying in an email to her therapist, “I feel mortified. I apologize sincerely. I understand I need to rein in myself,” and he phoned her for the first time, telling her, “Not at all, I’m incredibly proud of you.” That moment, she realized, was a turning point when something had changed.
As she added, “Things ended pretty quickly after.”
When it was time for Anna to make up her mind about Alice Darling, she preferred not to have anyone influencing her choice.
She reflected on a situation where she felt much like taking a leap without pausing to ask if it was the right decision. This impulse, she realized, stemmed from an instinctive desire for self-determination, perhaps rooted in her childhood where she didn’t want anyone dictating when she should stop and rest, similar to not wanting to be told bedtime. In simpler terms, she often found herself acting without second thoughts, as if saying “I choose to do this” instead of waiting for someone else’s approval.
