Our Project's Back Story:

This film was conceived for a special gathering of motorhome owners of Rexhall Motorcoaches. The event was entitled Rexhall Noir in October of 2013. All the members of the club was encouraged to dress in period costumes for the last two nights of the 5 day event. The last scene to be shot was completed on that Friday Night with some club members and the cast. The film was shown privately to all the members on Saturday night. Yes, all post completed and delivered in one day for the Saturday event at 7pm. The film has since been finely tuned and cut to a very comfortable 32 minutes. Shot in color and released in Black & White, Rex Hall comes to life as if it were 1942 Hollywood all over again. This brilliant cast and crew were guided and inspired by Sean M. Hickey for his first "longer" format production as writer and director. Everyone attached to this project brought their ultimate best and it shows in every scene.
