She Looks Like Julia

I never noticed the resemblance between Emma and Julia Roberts. I had no idea they were related. After seeing Emma in a short video, I thought WOW she really looks like a young Julia Roberts. Now I see she is the daughter of actor Eric Roberts, Julia's brother. She looks more like her aunt than she does her mother, actress Eliza Roberts.

I'm seeing negative comments about Emma's acting abilities. I have to admit her acting varies little from role to role, however she seems to be type cast in the same or similar roles though she nails the young self-absorbed diva. It would be good to see her venture into more diversified roles with greater depth. I believe she has it in her to be a great actress. It's in her family genes.

Her mother is not Eliza ... her mom is Kelly Cunningham, she is pictured here http://fabulous-emma.com/photos/displayimage.php?album=2337&pid=94624#top_display_media

I don't think she looks anything like her Aunt Julia 

Three actresses Emma reminds me of: Stacey Nelkin, Ashley Laurence and Sarah Michelle Gellar. In their younger days, of course.

Not in the least.

She is definitely daddy's little girl - estranged though she and Eric may be.

Julia raised her while Eric was a junkie. You can find lots of pics of her with Julia but none with Eric. Julia may not be half the actor that Eric is but you can't help but admire her compassion. The only good thing you can say for Eric is that he wasn't a serial cheater like Angelina Jolie's father Jon Voight.

Eric and Jon both picked up Best Acting noms for this:

They are lousy human beings but did they ever create screen magic.

Epic scene!
