Found the answer to my own question after doing another tail on
/var/log/messages and noticing something different this time.  It was giving
me an error message about using an insecure port (over 1024.)  I simply
changed my /etc/exports to the following and now it appears to be working.

/film_dept_shared/
192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,async,insecure)<http://192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0%28rw,no_root_squash,async%29>
