Killing A Dead Cat

On the last day of production on Merrily, Merrily, Tim and Frederick (the sound guys) and I conspired to add a little pizzaz to one of the shots. We were planning on executing the prank during a close-up, for maximum effect, but as the day transpired, we had to keep pushing it back, until it turned into a nice capper for the martini. One more production - and one boom microphone- down for the count.

By the time we wrapped, I was already halfway done with a first cut. James and I finished it this evening. I like this sort of turn-around time.
