Artist Pete Emslie provides us with this personal memento from Al Martino. Visit Pete's site at The Cartoon Cave.
By Lee Pfeiffer

"One Tree Hill" cast take viewers behind the scenes for a quick tour of their filming day. Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols summarized what they have done in L.A. Beach set and how it will contribute to the story. Nichols spilled that Brooke comes into L.A. just to tell Julian that she loves her. Bush added that complications are still entailing the relationship although it may seem to be a happy ending.
In fact, the scene that Bush and Nichols have shot will be included in the September 14 premiere. It pays a homage to movie classic "From Here to Eternity" where two lovebirds lie on the beach sand and make out whilst the waves sweep them over.
