Perfectly Seedy


Run, don't walk to see the movie "Gone Baby Gone" at a theater near you. The movie itself is terrific, but what was truly stunning was the spot-on set design. If you've ever lived in a northeast, urban neighborhood with row houses, you will feel right at home. The interiors and exteriors are perfect, complete with low-rent furnishings and decor. And one of the houses was truly scary, but I won't be a spoiler—go catch this flick!

We knew our pal Lisa Shaftel (shown above on the set) worked on this film, so we waited to see her name in the credits. Unfortunately, they didn't list any of the team. This is our small tribute to a job well done.
