Heartthrob Arrives at Whistling Pines
International film star Lenny DiCornocopio was in town this week, scouting locations for his upcoming film "The Well," the tragic story of a college stunt gone-wrong. (See the May edition  of The Whistler for details.)

Jessie Marbella was the first to spot Lenny among the crowd, checking out the old community well in Larsen Square: "I was with my mom at the farmers' market and all of a sudden I turned and there he was! I called Ginger and she called a bunch of people, and pretty soon everybody was there."

With nearly the entire WPJH student body mobbing him, Lenny agreed to stop and answer a few questions and even pose for a few photos.

Confirmed fan Whitney Weiss asked if there were a role for her in the movie. To which smooth-talker Len replied, "If it were up to me, you'd ALL be my leading ladies." Sources claim that there are slots for almost 300 extras, and 5 minor speaking parts are still to be cast. Locals are hoping to help fill those spots.

So how does our town measure up as a film site? LDC said “I still have to talk to the location scout, but so far, this is my favorite place." He said a final decision would be made "in the next few weeks."

Soon after Lenny left, arguments erupted over who would be leading lady Waif Winston's younger sister. The loudest voice by far was Nicole Whitaker's. "If any one even TRIES to get that part, they'll regret it for the rest of their life!"

Far from the quarreling, Max Diamond -- who claims to be a friend of a friend of Lenny's -- joked to his friends: "If I know Len, there's no way he'd pick Nicole for anything."

Filming is scheduled to begin in August.
