The only audition tape that came in that took on that record store scene was Penns, and it was almost as you see it. He just did it and took such risks, and anyone whos going to take such risks on his audition is my guy. When we filmed it, I remember saying, Keep going, be bold, because I would think Jeff would want him to be bold and bolder and boldest, and so we went that way.Principal photography took place in August and September 2011 in New York City. Interior scenes were shot at St. Anns Church in Brooklyn where Buckleys actual gig occurred back in 1991. Production was managed by Smuggler Films and AZ productions.
