Heh, thanks everybody. It was really fun. Next time I have to get my daughter in there, too. I thought the fact that I was in the middle of stripping the wallpaper in my office made it more gritty and noir-ish. Plus that angel statue in my backyard was all Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil-ish.

My son didn't get why we had to film the dialogue 4-5 times each scene. When I explained the idea of cutting together differently framed shots of the same thing, he seemed to get it, though. There was probably 20 minutes of acting that we cut into the final edit.
