The cinetrix is far too youthful-looking to make the cut, but if this sounds like you, it may be your lucky break!
Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese begins shooting the film Ashecliffe, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, next week. For a scene depicting the liberation of the Dachau Concentration Camp in Germany in 1945, Grant Wilfley Casting, Inc. is seeking men and women, generally ages 40-70, thin and with Eastern European features, to play Holocaust camp survivors. The scene will be shot in Taunton, Mass. this coming Tuesday, March 4, and on Monday, March 10. Actors will be paid for both days of filming.

Having been to Taunton, the cinetrix can only shake her head that a location scout thought it might double for Dachau. That said, you may know the production by its other name, Shutter Island. It's the latest Lehane adaptation, and it boasts quite a cast, including Mark Ruffalo, Jackie Earl Haley, Patricia Clarkson, Ben Kingsley, Emily Mortimer, even Max von freakin' Sydow. So getcher Eastern European-looking ass ovah theah.
