Emma and Spencer spent their childhood in Scottsdale, Arizona, a city located just outside of Phoenix. In a 2015 interview with actressDiane KeatonforInterview Magazine,she said her family lived on the 16th hole of a golf course.
“It once said on Wikipedia that my parents owned the golf course, which could not be further from the truth,” theLa La Landactress said. “But if you’re in Arizona, you’re at least within a couple miles of, if not on, a golf course.”
For two months every summer, Krista, Emma and Spencer would escape the desert heat and go to the beach in Coronado, California. The actress told directorCameron Crowein a 2012 interview forInterview Magazinethat if they hadn’t, they would have spent their summers “in a cold, dark room watching movies.”

In addition to creating shows, they’d watch them together. While walking the red carpet for the 2017 SAG Awards, Spencer and Emma toldEntertainment Weeklythat their favorite movie to watch as a family was the 1979Steve MartincomedyThe Jerk.
