Jackson O'Neill Short Film - The Decision
November 2020, The Decision, digital video, 2 minutes. Position: writer/director/editor.
A teenager, a small-time drug dealer who is raising his younger brother on his own, is confronted with the choice of accepting his well-earned place in university or grappling with the day-to-day realities of putting food on the table. This film’s conceptual message is that while sometimes drug dealers are portrayed in the media as violent and nefarious, they are usually alone, hungry, and feeling forced into a life they don’t want. It speaks to how society has its priorities out of sync with the real world when education, which should be a right for everyone, isn’t accessible to all. This film is inspired by the life of one of my brother’s basketball teammates.

Irish Emigrants in London- Ashford Place
Well done! Are you going to ucla irl
Boston or New York would have been a better alternative.
Why,most of America is a poverty striven country riddled with gun crime on a daily basis,even the priests and nuns are carrying guns and are ready to use them.
And what makes you think that are you a expert on where people should live mabe you should find out how many irish millionaires live in london it might wise you up.
@@proudman6598 I lived in the U.K. and the US so I know . You have a chip on your shoulder and I suspect by your attitude you regret the decisions you made. You hadn’t the balls to go to the US and instead you wound up a loser in the U.K. . Keep your regrets and bitterness to yourself.
@@proudman6598 How many? I`ve never seen or heard any.
It was expensive to get to America in those days and cheap to get to England so that's where most of the Irish emigrated to in that era.
I enjoyed listening to their stories.
My Dad was in Cricklewood in the 60s. Returned to Tipperary in 69
OH!! Wait!!! The Irish Republicans Hate England and the English SO WHY do the Fu!kers keep on going to England???🇬🇧
I was a barman in the crown in cricklewood 1982 it had a electrifying atmosphere today it's like the moon, it's got no atmosphere
Did you change the cheques? How did that work ? Did the Crown take a fee or a percentage?
@@khiggins7231I have it in my head they took 2.5% as it worked out you paid £10 to get a £400 cheque paid. Mind you am going back through the years here and it could have been 1988 that I did that. At the time you had your week in hand then you were paid on the Thursday after, by cheque. I was outraged at the fees and soon got on my feet and paid cheque into the ATM of the Abbey National. I am sure a 3 zone travelcard was £10 a week at the time, so £10 was something.(just to give you an idea of value then).
@@Gommerell Hang on Stuart are you not forgetting how much you put over the bar after you cashed the cheque?
My ex husband used to drink in their back in the 1980s brendan shiels
I remember lads getting paid going straight to the crown on a Friday, sleeping in some party house hit the crown again on Saturday morning same Sunday. Then you’d pick them up Monday again at the Crown. They wouldn’t even get to change there clothes. It’s so sad to know there’s poor Paddy’s over there today to broke or old or to set in there ways to come home. I had good times there as a younger man ,I often go over but it’s a lot more dangerous and little work.☘️🙏
Wonderful Thank you
Bless the Irish.
That`s a great name- Mario Flavin.
