Pauline is fully fluent in French and admitted she had a hard time pretending she didn't speak the language in The Sex Lives of College Girls. Pauline told W Magazine that she thought she'd have more of a knack for speaking with an American accent, sharing "I figured it'd be easy for me, I just had to copy my mother's strong American accent!" Pauline went on to jokingly note that the on-set language coach would often correct her, because her French inflection was coming through too strongly.
