I have only watched it once (really liked it btw) and was wondering if Jane's accent was inconsistent on purpose? She seems to have a Texas accent at first but once she realizes it's Travis, the Texas accent goes away. In the movie, is she supposed to be faking the Texas accent for her customers and you hear her normal voice when she no longer "working." Once again, I've only seen it once so I could be mistaken.

I noticed that too. It wasn't intentional. When her accent started to disappear were lines that she delivered in whispers and/or extremely emotionally. It's much harder for an actor to sustain a "fake" accent under those circumstances so her true accent poked through a bit. If the film had a higher budget they might have re-shot those scenes, then again the performance was so good they might have just left it be.
