Oh, excellent, then I don't have to do the test case, because I
believe this solves my original problem :) Thanks!

Since this has stalled 6 weeks with me not doing much with it, I went
ahead and checked it in. Hopefully I'll have an easier time doing
incremental development (especially ReST docs) with it in. There are
definitely still some things to clean up, especially in the area of
saving movies.
