The assignment was given to the class by their Theology teacher Ann Klonowski.<\/p>\n<p>You may have noticed the cross on the main actor\u2019s neck in Angileece\u2019s film. To you it may not have made a difference, but for her, there is a story behind it:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the first day of filming, Malcolm had asked me if the lead actor could wear a fairly large cross around his neck. The decision was completely up to me, but I chose to be indifferent. Here I was on the very first day of shooting a script that I had rewritten countless times and put my hard work and dedication into, and I was reverting back to my old ways. I shrugged my shoulders and said, \u201cI don\u2019t care.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ricardo, the Scenarios USA Youth Coordinator, was standing next to me, and he said something that I will never forget. \u2018Angileece,\u2019 he said, \u2018I don\u2019t mean to sound harsh, but you have to learn to make a decision.\u2019 I was speechless. His words shocked me, and though they stung in the moment, he said something I needed to hear.<\/p>\n<p>I will keep close to my heart what I learned and experienced during those two beautiful days of filming. I learned the importance of letting my voice be heard. Even when I don\u2019t think I have an opinion, I have to dig deeper and find out what I really think and want to express. Shrugging my shoulders and saying, \u2018I don\u2019t care,\u2019 is no longer an option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"580\" height=\"270\" codebase=\"https:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=19185965&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=1&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"580\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=19185965&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=1&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/19185965\">Life&#8217;s Poison Preview<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/user934653\">Scenarios USA<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life&#8217;s Poison Written By: Angileece Williams from Cleveland, Ohio at Saint Martin De Porres High School Directed By: Malcolm D.
