Only once in my life have I lost my keys and returned home late at night and found myself in a situation where I needed to climb my apartment building's back-alley fire escape and "break in" to my own apartment.
Only once in my life has there been a Hollywood movie, complete with cameras, floodlights, and dozens of people, being shot in my building's back alley.
In an ideal world, they would have fallen on different nights.
