Emma Roberts is Back in L.A. After Maui Film Festival in Hawaii

Emma Roberts sips on a green juice drink while out grabbing some lunch on Monday afternoon (June 9) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The 23-year-old actress’s Palo Alto director Gia Coppola recently opened up about why she chose to do the movie.

“Movies today, the actors are all older, the clothes are expensive, they’re usually kind of dorky, and everything’s perfectly lit. Skin and hair are always perfect, and I just felt in the real world, teenagers aren’t like that,” Gia told Refinery29.com. “They’re completely fearless in everything they do because they have no repercussions and don’t understand them yet. I wanted to use real teenagers and show what they’re normally like, and it was fun to get into that and work with real teenagers and find out what it’s like.”

The week before, Emma stepped out at the 2014 Maui Film Festival held at the Seaside Cinema in Wailea, Hawaii.
