'Scream 4's' Emma Roberts impresses director Wes Craven with her big books?
Apparently, Emma Roberts isn't just another pretty face with a smokin' body. In the current issue of Women's Health magazine, the "Scream 4" actress gets props from director Wes Craven on her literary skills. What the what?
"Most actors would sit around Twittering," Craven says of Roberts. "She reads serious books and has a knowledge of several centuries' worth of literature."
First of all, LOL at "Twittering," but otherwise a pretty solid compliment from the man who spun genius into the "Nightmare on Elm Street" horror movie franchise, among others, and helms the new "Scream" chapter.
"She knocked our socks off," he also says. "She is intelligent and was able to pull a real performance even from her audition which we did via Skype. She has a great combination of an all-American look and tremendous gravitas and force."
Of course, the feeling is mutual, "Having Wes Craven to work with as a director was really amazing," Roberts says. "I mean, I really respect him and admire him so it was nice to get to work with him."
So, are you impressed by Emma's big books, too?

Euh..OK Mister Craven people can use twitter and read books you know..This statement just confirm that most of little hollywood starlets are some airhead, dimwit not that Julia Robert's niece is cultured or smart..HELLO ! lol
By the way she doesn't seem to have any charisma, the only time i quite liked was on her first role (i think) on Blow and well she had a minor role where she played herself..LOL..She seems to be above all here because she is Julia's niece and Eric's daughter..
