How Anna Kendrick Became a Crime Junkie | Crime Junkie AF | Forensic Files

I would consider myself to have been a more casual consumer of True Crime um and then when you know some things went
down in in a long-term relationship that I was in um I really I really got kind of obsessed and uh and I think that
there's a way in which we can kind of sublimate our own stuff um by feeling like if I can just get to the bottom
of why that guy or that person did that thing maybe I could uncover some Universal human truth and I could make
sure that I never found myself in a situation like that again and I don't know how true that is but it really
changed how I consumed True Crime um but uh at any rate you know the subject matter of the movie is like really
gripping but I I also hoped to be bringing in some of that emotional DNA to the entire movie which you did a
great job of you said it's outside of your whale house but girl it is not outside of your whale house you did
incredible
