The big heist scene was filmed in this giant pink (?!) warehouse in the Deep Ellum section of Dallas. Deep Ellum was where all the cool bars/clubs were before the whole thing went tourista. *sigh* <BR/><BR/>Incidentally, the Owens' parents have a sprawling mid-century modern house next to a country club in Dallas, and I have a friend who attended a wedding reception there. Two of the living spaces are divided simply by a small step-down of about 2 inches, and my friend's husband stumbled over it, and wryly commented to her "I think I just discovered how Luke broke his nose."phlegmfatalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636803080525003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-53389129773801334142007-11-03T00:03:00.000-04:002007-11-03T00:03:00.000-04:00Great soundtrack on that movie.
