Flash Transparency of Overlapping Items

In Flash, I have a container with several overlapping children. When I give this container an alpha value of .5, some of the children can be seen behind others that overlap them. I would rather be able to take the whole thing as a composite image and blend it that way.

Any ideas? cacheAsBitmap on the parent container doesn't have any effect.

A: 

Well, use Bitmap.draw() function... And then just alpha that image.

Like, put it into a MC and give an alpha value to it (for example).
