Let's assume my actors are well clothed the entire film and hiding the wires is no problem. Are there any situations where a boom is absolutely necessary?
Seems like the best solution to get clear sound throughout your film would be to invest in a few really nice lavalier mics (the Rode PinMic looks pretty cool too).
I've been on at least 100 professional film sets as a BG actor and they almost always have boom operators.
