When I have to switch back and forth, it's not hard to go from the American accent to speaking Spanish, but then speaking Spanish and going back into the American accent is hard. I practice it so much. I talk to myself in the mirror all the time. It's like speaking multiple languages.

What's wonderful about acting is that you get to play different roles. For instance, in 'Amelie,' I played a young mother. Some of the photoshoots, you're playing a role. I like to be able to look at a photo and say, 'Wow - that isn't even me.' I enjoy being able to project.

You have to give every portion of yourself to it. As an artist, that is just what you do - because we love it - we were born to do it.

I couldn't imagine falling in love with someone on set. But then, maybe that is one of the messages of 'Halal Daddy.' You never know when and with whom you'll find love.
